Parenting Focus recognises that fatherhood is a life-changing, enriching but also challenging experience. This booklet uses words from fathers with the aim of highlighting that parenting is not a linear journey nor does parenting look the same in every family. Through taking opportunities to practice their own self-care and connect with others in a similar position, fathers can learn and grow which will strengthen their relationships with their children. Parenting Focus has many services specifically tailored towards supporting fathers such as weekly online Dads Talk sessions, Fathers & Families programme and the Men’s Minds Matter Commmunity Pharmacy Project. There is also Parenting Focus’ support line which is available on 0808 8010 722.
