Blog: Live and Kicking...
The blog was started in November 2007 at the beginning of the Dads-Matter-Too film-making project (by Jackie Calderwood, film-maker & media artist) as a way for all involved to communicate to a wider audience.
The Dads want to tell as many people as possible (health-care providers, educators, politicians, other dads and young people) about their concerns, experiences and opinions.

More about...
Dads who've been on the U-Too young fathers courses helped to fundraise and plan this film-making project. Well done Gareth and John for getting the film-making project off the ground, and Marcus for leading the bid to extend into a series of media workshops.
The blog tracks the process, including the film launch and other successes along the way. It continues to focus on fatherhood issues.
