Colls partner with Andy’s Man Club

Junior Coach Lee Connolly has set up Mental Health meetings in partnership with Andy’s Man Club.

Lee is the coach of our U13’s JPL team and has done a great job with the guys. However he is now embarking on his latest challenge. He recently went through Mental Health Training, this got him thinking about the taboo subject around Men’s Mental Health. After looking into what our local supports systems are, there seems to very little locally.

He took this upon himself, in partnership with Andy’s Man Club, to set up the free peer to peer group. These meetings will begin from the end of April/start of May (this will be confirmed in due course). All meetings will be hosted at Pontefract Collieries (The Regional Electrical Services Ltd Stadium), and they will be from 7pm. Lee has the club’s full support and we will work closely with him to support others.

The meetings will provide people in our community and the wider communuity, the place to meet with other people who will listen and provide support. If this is something you feel is for you or someone you know, please visit https://andysmanclub.co.uk/ and let’s end the stigma that surrounds Men and their Mental Health and Mental Well-Being.

To get in touch, please either message the club or visit http://andysmanclub.co.uk/.
