just popping over from third tri, am hoping someone from cardiff might be able to help me with a question!

my cousin has just moved from australia to cardiff and is currently a stay at home dad :) while he's enjoying that, he's missing out on friends/fam and doesn't feel comfortable with the thought of going to all mothers mothers group, all mothers swimming class etc.

when i asked him about whether there were dad/fathers groups in cardiff he told me there weren't any. i find this hard to believe?!!?! surely there must be something!! i'd really like to help him out.

would really appreciate any thoughts/leads! :flower::flower:
 
I'm not sure about father's groups as such, maybe try asking the NCT? I know that a lot of dads take their lo's to swimming lessons in Cardiff International pool at the weekends so he wouldn't be the only dad there and might meet some people that way?
 
to be honest all around the valleys they dont seem to run anything for just dads :( when i went to mother and baby group a few years back i remember quite a few dads there with their lo

thanks welshprincess :) it's so hard to believe! at the end of my street (in london) we have a nursery/school and that has fathers group - so find it incredible that a whole city can be without! i've just come across an article though dated from a couple of weeks ago talking about the problem, that there is currently nothing available - so looks like you may be right :(

just wish there was a way to connect, even online, or starting their own meets...
 
the ones ive been to there have been dads that have taken their lo's not loads maybe just 1 or 2 or some days
 
on some days not or some days!
