Berwick pub donates £2,000 to Andy’s Man Club for local suicide prevention
A Berwick pub donated £2000 to Andy’s Man Club as part of a wider community initiative.
As part of The Give Inn Back scheme, all pubs in The Inn Collection Group are given annual funds to donate to local causes, charities, and community activities of their choosing.
For 2025, the Lindisfarne Inn decided to use their funds to support suicide prevention charity Berwick Andy’s Man Club – presenting them with a cheque of £2000.
General manager, Amelia Dunn said: “We have given almost our entire 2025 Give Inn Back Fund to Andy's Man Club, as we have seen first hand the incredible support they offer to Berwick Upon Tweed and the surrounding areas.
“The North East has suicide rates consistently above the UK average and male suicide specifically has increased over the last few years in our community.
“So many members of our community have been impacted by male suicide, and when we asked our team who we would like to support, the overwhelming response was Andy's Man Club.”
The team plan to continue their support for the charity throughout 2026 through further fundraising efforts, hosting meetings or displaying promotional material.
Amelia added: "Meeting them was such a pleasure to hear how passionate they are about supporting male mental health and bringing it to the forefront of the conversation.”
In another initiative of The Give Inn Back Scheme, which began in 2022, the team also worked with Alnwick Brewery last year to create a special beer to fundraise for Northumberland Dog Rescue.
