Owner Josh Downes wanted the shop to be a place where men could feel comfortable talking about their mental health. Josh, 28, has previously spoke openly about his issues with mental health in the past
But he was dealt a major blow last year when he was forced to close after his business suffered repeated flooding caused by a blocked drain. He ordered a private company to carry out a drainage report and to clear the drain in August, after the back of his shop flooded due to the blockage.
