One Saturday last month we were up bright and early on a beautiful day to assist with a Coffee and cars meet at Williams Crawford in Saltash. Arriving at 7:45am there were already a couple of keen drivers parking their pride and joys. This event had been organised by Williams Crawford in conjunction with the mens mental health support group, Andys Man Club. With the car scene being predominantly male, what better place to promote such a fantastic organisation while enjoying some stunning motors, delicious coffee all while raising funds?


The event was attended by three facilitators from Plymouths Andys Man Club, Craig, Mark and Jonathan. These guys, along with Williams Crawford, worked hard so everyone had an enjoyable and knowledgable morning.


There was a suggested £5 per car donation on entry with the guys from AMC patrolling with buckets, while handing out freebies such as wristbands and car air fresheners along with information leaflets and big smiles.


The event was attended by a huge variety of vehicles from the hot hatches of the Ford Focus and Vauxhall Corsa, to the luxury of the Jaguar and Bentley, up to the supercars such as Ferrari and Lamborghini. Williams Crawford opened the doors to their showroom and workshop for all visitors which was fascinating.


It was fantastic to see so many people and motors attending and for an amazing charity.

If you are a male aged 18+ and are struggling with your mental health or feel like you could do with a chat or a little support, look these guys up. They are simply amazing.


This awesome morning raised £1081. It was an honour to be involved in this engaging event.
