16 men.

16 men walked through the doors of Andys Man Club Bacup last night.

3 of those men attended for the very first time.

A really impactful group last night with some deep things shared.

“You don’t have to carry things alone” 👌

We ended on the question - What was your dream job as a kid?

Answer of the night :
Racing Car Driver - but I don’t like driving fast 😅

Unfortunately we are not open next week due to the bank holiday, however we are back on 13th April 2026 at The Circle Bacup 7pm - 9pm.
