Jigsaw Presents Cheque to Men’s Mental Health Charity

Jigsaw Homes Group has handed over a cheque of more than £14,000 to the mental health charity AndysManClub after a year of successful fundraising efforts.

Employees at Jigsaw Group raised funds for AndysManClub which was chosen by staff members as its charity of the year for 2025.

Through a variety of events including a special Parkrun, bingo, football matches, learn to paint classes and raffles, as well as sales of decommissioned laptops and regular monthly donations, a total of £14,125 was raised.

Further contributions came from a weekend in a holiday home – generously donated by Jigsaw’s Heating Installation Manager Luke Garner – alongside a £500 Airbnb gift voucher and a £750 donation from a supplier’s social value fund.

Group Chief Executive Brian Moran and Deputy Chief Executive Katie Marshall, alongside Jigsaw Employees, presented the cheque to Chris Kelly, Greater Manchester and Lancashire Lead of AndysManClub.

Jigsaw also hosted online sessions with the charity to help colleagues learn more about the vital work they do across the UK in trying to tackle the stigma around men’s mental health.

AndysManClub offers free peer-to-peer support groups across the UK, providing a confidential and non-judgemental space where men of all ages can openly discuss their mental health. The charity currently runs 330 clubs attended by over 6,500 men throughout the UK.

Katie Marshall, Deputy Chief Executive of Jigsaw Homes Group said: “We are incredibly proud to have presented AndysManClub with more than £14,000 raised by our colleagues. We hope that by raising awareness of the work done by the charity within our workforce, we can show that it’s OK to talk and that this money can go towards helping those who might be struggling with their mental health.”

The Group will now focus it’s fundraising efforts on its chosen charity for 2026, Reuben’s Retreat.
