This welcoming dads group offers a supportive environment for fathers and father figures, including grandfathers, uncles, and carers. It focuses on navigating the challenges of parenting children from infancy through the teenage years. Each session encourages open sharing and connection.
You will gain insights into understanding your child better and learn how to be intentional in your role as a father. The group emphasizes building emotional intelligence and raising resilient children.
The sessions combine research-based parenting insights with open discussion, facilitated by The Fathering Project, a not-for-profit organisation promoting positive fathering behaviours.
Each meeting includes a 20-minute topic presentation followed by an open floor for sharing challenges, reflections, and support among participants. The group aims to help fathers build stronger family relationships and reduce stress.
You will build a practical toolkit to respond to your children's changing needs as they grow and develop. The group is designed to support fathers in becoming the best version of themselves for their kids.
The sessions are free and open to all father figures in the community.
