We provide safe and supportive spaces for Dads to talk, listen and share their experiences of fatherhood. Our team know just how difficult that can be, so we couple talking with exercise, walking and other engaging activities like archery, bushcraft and gym sessions to build our guests up and leave them in a positive mental state.
We are very proud of the Brotherly Support network we have created. What started as a single meet-up in Maidstone October 2021, has now grown to hosting regular sessions in over 7 local towns, with many more planned for the year to come!
Listen to what some of the team have to say below, then find and event near you:
You can now find us in: Maidstone, Sevenoaks, Ashford, Faversham, Medway, Folkestone, Tunbridge Wells and many more to come....
Much of this expansion is thanks to the backing of Kent County Council and Medway Council. We now have a dedicated team of over 10 Dads, who volunteer their time each month to listen, support and signpost local Fathers and families to wider support services across Kent and Medway. A few questions we get asked a lot...
Is it just for Dads? No, you do not have to be a dad. We pride ourselves on supporting Mental Health across the board. Our peer to peer support model benefits greatly from members of all ages and different walks of life, not just dads.
Is it just for people who are struggling? No, many of our members are just looking for a social circle to make new friends in their local area. We are proud to offer so much more than that.
Do you host Family Events? Yes, while our core sessions are aimed at men, we do host family/child friendly events around Easter, Halloween and Christmas. We also host a Summer Garden party which is open to everyone.
How much does it cost to attend? Nothing, our core sessions will always remain FREE. We believe there should be no barriers to better mental health.
