The team are back in the North this weekend for our 3rd meeting of the year with the North East Young Dads & Lads (NEYDL) AmbassaDADs group, a fantastic bunch of young dads who are advocating for themselves and others. Lots of exciting projects with them are ongoing including work on new DigiDAD content!
