I had the privilege of speaking at SPARK Oldham’s first International Men’s Day event this afternoon. International Men’s Day is more than just a day to recognise men as fathers, brothers, sons and friends – it’s an opportunity to spotlight their contributions to families, workplaces and communities.
It’s also a time to reflect on the challenges men face, from mental health struggles to societal pressures.
I was honoured to present the Inspirational Man Award, sponsored by the family of the late Andrew Fowles, to this year’s recipient Gaz Brindley. Gaz inspires everyone with his selflessness and positivity. He is a tireless community volunteer and a source of joy and support to those around him.
Thank you to everyone who joined the event today and thank you to SPARK for organising such an inspiring event #LoveOldham #InternatationalMensDay #SPARKOldham
