Thanks to everyone for sending good vibes to support our founder Errol Murray repping Leeds Dads in April 2023 at the 24th Fathers and Families Coalition of America Conference in Los Angeles, USA.

The talks that he gave with Leeds Beckett University lecturer Lee Sobo-Allen explaining the work of Leeds Dads were a smash:

  • How to run a Dads Group
  • Bonding Dads with Their Kids in the Early Years
  • Dad is Grounded

Loads of people asked how do we do it?

Father Support Workers couldn’t believe we have been running for almost 12 years, host weekly Breakfast Clubs, Dads and Kids Walks or SoftPlay activities, run dads’ online chat forums, and support 500 dads/month.

We are really proud of what we have achieved.

Many thanks to everyone who has supported Leeds Dads on this adventure, including Dr James Rodriguez from the Fathers and Families Coalition of America, and especially the committee and members of Leeds Dads.

Meanwhile, here’s BBC Look North’s report on how a little Yorkshire charity showed the world how to support dads to engage with their pre-school kids.
