We started this venture earlier in 2026 and have been encouraged by the first few sessions of The Dad Drop-In at St John’s Church, Chilcompton. The sessions have been positive, providing a relaxed and welcoming space for dads, stepdads, grandads and other father figures to meet, chat and build connections while children have space to play.
Do come along and find for yourself the benefit of having a space like this within our community. Everyone is welcome so help spread the word and encourage dads and father figures you know to give it a try.
Sometimes simply providing a place to meet, a warm welcome and a cup of coffee can be the beginning of something really valuable.
Thank you for contacting us. We will endeavour to reply as soon as possible.
