Future Dads is a one-day course for new and expectant dads, that demonstrates practical and emotional approaches to take care of themselves, their partner and their baby.
The course offers a space for men to come together to share their concerns, excitement and expectations of becoming a dad.
Who is it for?
If you’re a new dad, or a dad to be, Future Dads is the course for you.
What happens on the day?
Future Dads (ONLINE) covers a range of topics, including:
Practical skills: How to hold, feed, bathe, change and bond with your baby
Being a dad: Why dads are important and what kind of dad you want to be
Relationships: How having a baby can have an impact on relationships with your partner, friends and family
Self-care: How to look after your physical and mental health and wellbeing
A midwife will also be on hand to answer your questions about the birth and beyond!* (on full one day course*)

We want to thank Thomas Payton-Greene for volunteering his time and expertise in filming, editing and producing the above video.
We are working closely with the NHS and hospitals to keep everyone safe. As soon as we are able to resume the course we will update the website.
The impact of school exclusion can be life-changing. It is imperative to have accurate data to be able to understand risk factors, formulate policies and consider strategic responses.
