Last
Saturday saw the second birthday of Andy's Man Club in Oldham. The
support group, started in Halifax by former pro rugby player Luke
Ambler, has been running in Oldham for 2 years now; after starting in
Oldham Sports Centre we moved to Chadderton due to room availability
but despite not being as central we've still had great attendance,
helping hundreds of men across Oldham and beyond.
The
group did a fantastic job of bringing together a DJ, a live band, a
buffet, paintings, a range of poems, and photographs, the latter 3
displayed along the walls of Royton Band Club.
The
majority of the night was organised by 3 members in particular, who I
won't name for the moment, but their efforts in bringing contributors
together were immense and paid off greatly. My poem, imaginatively
titled 'Depression Poem,'
was one of the ones displayed.
Check
out this amazing album shot by one of the group.
