Leeds Dads

Brings together a diverse community of fathers for social interaction and support.

Started by a Leeds Dad who realised he wasn’t getting quality time with his daughter and most provision was for mums, Leeds Dads is a support group specifically tailored for Dads and their (mostly pre-school aged) children.

The group is not simply a place saying “come on and play with your kids” but “come on and interact with other dads that are also taking care of their children”… definitely [it has made a difference] because I feel more confident to just go out with [my son] and make things with him, but more than that, it made me reflect more about parenting.

Their monthly meet-ups are full of fathers, fun activities, crafts, trips, involvement in local festivals, Dads’ socials and a Dadstastic Fathers’ Day event that attracts over 1000 children and parents!
