This week on Mum, Dad’s Got Another Tattoo we’re joined by Chris Green from Andy’s Man Club – the nationwide movement giving men a safe, judgment-free place to talk.

Chris’s story is powerful. After losing his son Nicky to suicide, he stumbled across Andy’s Man Club, almost by accident. What started as attending a group online turned into face-to-face sessions, then into volunteering, and eventually into a new career. Chris is now an Area Lead for Cumbria and Dumfries & Galloway, supporting facilitators and helping new groups get off the ground.

We talk about:

What it’s like walking into Andy’s Man Club for the first time
Why peer-led groups feel different from therapy or counselling
The stigma that still keeps men silent, and how to break it
Coping with grief, guilt, and the “what ifs” of suicide
How sharing even small frustrations can stop them snowballing
The ripple effect when men talk: stronger families, better work, and kids who feel the pressure lift

Chris is open about the hardest parts of his journey and generous in what he shares. It’s not an easy listen at times, but it’s an important one.

👉 If you’re struggling, or know someone who is, visit Andy’s Man Club to find a local group or online meeting.
