Ricky's Club is a mens mental health and social group. The sessions are available to anyone who feels they need someone to talk to or if you don't feel up to talking yet you can just come down to sit in and listen.
It takes place at Elite Community Hub every 2 weeks on Tuesday evenings from 7:30-9pm.
It will then take place each 2 weeks after that. They are free to attend, non judgemental, with no pressure and no surprises! Just a group of guys with one mission - to try and help each other live a happier life.
