Website for fathers goes live

A website for dads to get parenting support has been launched by the Family Matters Institute.

The site, www.dadtalk.co.uk, has a forum where dads can talk to each other and contains articles, videos and podcasts which will help them to take part in debates.

They can also be signposted to specialist services through the site, which is being launched today (Tuesday 10 June).

The site has been established by a consortium involving Eastside Young Leaders Academy, Luton Young Leaders Academy, The Orangee Ltd and the Family Matters Institute.

Matt Buttery, chief executive of the Family Matters Institute said: "There is no single definition of a father and DadTalk explores that diversity, encouraging all dads to aspire to more for themselves and their kids."

The site is being funded by the Department for Children, Schools and Families under the Parent Know-How scheme.
