He is a renowned speaker and writer on mental health, entrepreneurship and finance.

Overall, a really well written, engaging and honest account. * amazon.co.uk * Working in accountancy I can relate to many things in this book. Never looked at it from the perspective that Andy portrays. I found this book funny, insightful and a very addictive read. A must read for anyone thinking of going down the same path.

Honest and open and picked me up massively when things got difficult in lockdown. * amazon.co.uk * 'This book is not forced, its not as polished as others, its raw and REAL, and doesn't succumb to the mainstream mental health books - its a few quid and a few hours of your time - honestly, just grab it, it could change your life' * amazon.co.uk *

He now brings his professional expertise to the Leeds technology and start-up scene, helping new business to employ best practice as they grow. He is an investor and Director at a newly founded technology company with the ambitious goal of helping the high street fight back against online whilst also building location-centric communities.

Andy has also knowingly lived with depression for most of his life. Struggling with his work in his 30s, distant from his family and feeling unable to connect with anyone, he was just at his lowest point when his wife left him. He came within moments of taking his own life.

He now advocates positive action around mental health, giving his signature Breaking the Stigma talk at a wide range of market-leading international organisations. He works closely with business leaders across the UK, delivering talks, workshops and coaching across their offices as they strive to build mentally healthy cultures.

Andy promotes his work through his own website and is known as an expert in mental health, entrepreneurship and finance around Leeds; appearing on local and national TV and radio and speaking and writing regularly on the subject.
