Struggling to engage dads or unsure where to begin? This free, one-hour Foundations session will show you the incredible benefits that can be gained when you engage with fathers.

Why dads matter

Dads play a key role in shaping a child’s future – boosting confidence, school performance, and self-esteem. Yet, they’re often overlooked by services, missing the chance to further support families.

This session will help you:

  • Recognise the key role dads play in their children’s growth.
  • Understand why engaging dads is essential for services.
  • Identify common challenges dads face in family life.
  • See how focusing on dads’ strengths improves outcomes.

Who is this session for?

This training is for professionals, educators, and service providers working with families – or anyone ready to embrace the benefits of father inclusion.
