Fed up with not really having a social life or pals to talk to properly?We know from personal experience and the thousands of conversations that we’ve had within our community just how hard it can be to find new friends as a dad.
The older you get, the smaller your social circle becomes, the more expensive babysitters are, and the hangovers worsen.
You catch up with your old mates on Facebook less and less. Your social life revolves around the friends your wife or partner has met on the school run and being thrown into a long-term relationship with their other halves.
If you are lucky, it can be great, and you will form lifelong friendships; however, for many dads groups like that don’t exist, which is why Dad La Soul does.
Our dad-friendly meetups are successfully reimagining the traditional approach to men's mental health provision by creating innovative, safe spaces to allow dads and male carers of all ages and socio-economic backgrounds to talk openly about their struggles.
Normally on a lad's night, you talk nonsense and pretend everything is alright, but instead, we laugh, take the friendly p*ss and, more importantly, talk openly about everything and anything.
We listen without prejudice. That, my friends, is something quite special.
Here's what we're up to in 2024 (at Freedom Works unless stated):
14th March: DJ Si Cannon
