Who Let the Dads Out? story

Published 3rd May 2012 by lucy moore

If you receive our monthly emailed newsletter (free! fun! encouraging! useful!) you’ll know that BRF has been delighted to welcome Who Let the Dads Out? to the BRF family recently.
My colleague Jane runs a Messy Church which in turn runs a Who Let The Dads Out? group. She wrote a few weeks ago:
Well L19: WLTDO? was such fun today with 16 men and 18 children who filled the hall with noise and movement. We enjoyed play and play dough, music and climbing, racing and running. If we grow any more we’ll have to change the set up in the hall. The new sofas and newspapers corner was used constantly and we had another 2 new dads. We ran out of bacon & barms so Ian had to run out for more twice! We now have 30 on the big register including 2 granddads. Some of the dads are coming to L19: Messy Church now too. Thank you God for year one!
If you’re interested in finding out more, check out the Who Let The Dads Out? website and sign up to the newsletter.
