Working with young fathers

We are delighted that with additional funding we now have a team of 3 fathers’ workers supported by some young father volunteers. We are delivering a range of services from support for fathers-to-be in partnership with antenatal services, to baby massage for fathers and babies, to gym and swim sessions plus workshops for young fathers and Little Dribblers encouraging fathers to play with their 2-5 year olds through football. Our energies currently are focused on domestic violence within young parent families and ensuring fathers are involved in child protection plans where appropriate..

St Michael's Fellowship Book Publication

St Michael’s Fellowship has published the first edition of its history 1903-2003. Titled ‘The History of St Michael’s Fellowship : From the Rescue of Fallen Women to the Support of Vulnerable Families’, the book charts the story of this voluntary organisation and throws light on some of the biggest social changes of the 20th Century – particularly ideas about the family, pregnancy, motherhood, illegitimacy and adoption. We hope the book may encourage those who have had links with the charity to share their experiences. For more information please contact us.
