If you are suffering from loneliness or are just looking for a community to join, then please contact us at Dads Unlimited (www.dadsunltd.org.uk) – we run a monthly cafe, a weekly film club, and are looking to launch similar groups soon, including more sports groups.
If you are interested in organising a group for Dads Unlimited, please get in touch soon.
