Father's Day

Happy Father’s Day

With Father’s Day on Sunday we know it can bring up a whole range of emotions - for some, it’s a day to celebrate a supportive dad or father figure. For others, it might be more complicated. Whether today brings love, grief, anger, confusion, or pride - or something else entirely - your feelings are totally valid

Maybe you:
  • Want to share something you appreciate about a dad, granddad, stepdad, or male role model
  • Are remembering someone you've lost
  • Want to celebrate your own role as a father figure for someone

Whatever your experience, feel free to share how you’re feeling.

    Excuse the dark humor 🫠
    Still trying to find my dad sorry guys 🥲
    Sometimes when the people most like you don't love you, it is a hurt that can cause the greatest pain, and this pain can lead you to hate everything.

    Mixed emotions today are totally valid folks - whether you celebrate Father's Day or not, the Community are here for you.

    And if you fancy a support space today we'll be running a Support Thread here on the boards at 12pm. You don't have to do today alone - we've got you
