Who runs OxonDads and Think Dad
Oxondads.co.uk and events for Dads around the county are organised by ‘Think Dad’ - a team of Dads and Dads’ Workers around the county brought together by Oxfordshire Parenting Forum. Think Dad aims to promote greater support for dads and their involvement in their children’s lives. It also acts as a pressure group for Dads’ issues in the county. In addition it oversees the Oxondads website and provides a meeting place for Dads’ Workers to meet together for mutual support and encouragement. Any Dads or Dads’ workers wanting to get involved in Think Dad are welcome to contact any of the OPF Dads’ Worker team (below).
Our gallery shares images of past events organised by the Think Dad team together with some images from Dads’ Groups in two children’s centres in Oxfordshire. These include:
• Oxon Early Years Play Day 2007
• Dads Go Wild 2009 and 2010
• Launch of Oxondads.co.uk
• Oxon Festival of Outdoor Learning 2010
• Grandpont Children’s Centre Dads’ group
• The Leys Children’s Centre Dads’ group.
