Important Update

To help us stay connected whilst I am unable to offer one-to-one support in person, or run any of our regular groups at the moment, I have arranged some EPIC Dad Chat meetings through Zoom Video.  This is an opportunity for fathers and father figures to connect, share experiences, offer support, and catch up with others.  For the foreseeable future we will be doing this on Tuesdays at 7pm (starting Tuesday 31st March) and Fridays at 1pm (starting Friday 3rd April).  I have picked an evening and lunchtime session in the hope that dads will be available if you are still working due to your front line role or working from home.
It would be great if you could join us for these groups.  Zoom is quite easy to set up as all you need to do is download Zoom on your laptop or tablet, then enter the Meeting ID, your name, and then click to join the meeting at the relevant time.  The group meetings will last 40 minutes each (we have a free 40 minute time limit on meetings).
Meeting ID for every Tuesday at 7pm is 444 702 974​ and the Meeting ID for every Friday at 1pm is 169 639 615​.
