- Online – monitoring, moderating, developing and contributing to our online support groups.
- Events – facilitating dad and baby events in various venues.
- Lived Experience – if you have experience of any of the challenges dads face, such as miscarriage or perinatal loss, perinatal mental health issues, supporting a partner through perinatal mental health issues, wellbeing, etc, then we’d love to have you help support our peer support groups
