Both Parents Matter レビュー 

The only charity to support any parent or grandparent to regain contact with their child or children,
I regularly attend the Manchester group once a month to provide support,

After being blindsided with ex parte orders and my life turned on its head I turned to FNF. They have provided fantastic support as I have navigated 16 months of hell. I have made friends with other fathers, I’ve empathised with many in similar and worse positions, and I’ve been lucky enough to receive fantastic legal advice. I hope
I’m able to give a little back at some point.

Most importantly, I’ve learned what I need to do and the kind of person I need to be to do the best for my children

FNF is the best resource for all parents, grandparents and anyone going through family separation. It's all about putting children first, and the children's right to all the love and support available. My family have been helped massively, I can't recommend FNF highly enough.

Thank you so much to FnF both in England and in Northern Ireland.

As a dad and Litigant in Person, without FnF, I would have not being able to navigate through the protracted family court system which involved a very complex case lasting 2.5 yrs of new proceedings, six Judges and Orders from two different UK jurisdictions. It is sad to experience the broken family court system as it is today and change urgently needs to be made. The biggest challenge for me, has been the constant experience of discrimination/bias views and cliques from court officials and not been taken seriously as a result. It is my sad perception that without knowing your rights and your child's rights, then unless you use a solicitor and/or make false accusations for legal aid then you are likely to not be taken seriously.

Despite my experience and challenges, I have managed to achieve excellent outcome and results for the sake of the child. This, would not have been possible without the information, pragmatism and support from FNF.

Thank you so much on behalf of my whole family.

Great support and networking highly recommended.

An important source of information how the Family Court works and what to expect. It is a reality check for most dads when they first attend one of FNF meetings. I met some understanding and kind people when I attended FNF harrow branch. Please continue with your hard work.

Families Need Fathers is very helpful and understanding. Great service. Thank you for all your time and support.

Excellent support and information from everyone involved

In June 2016, despite a Court Order, my former wife decided to coerce my daughter into stopping contact. I was incredulous and distraught. The lawyer advised caution, the Police were no use, Social Services useless (are you surprised?), my MP 0%, favourable CAFCASS report advised mother to adhere, but all went nowhere until she turned 18. FNF helped me throughout this incredible journey. I can't thank them enough.

Very helpful and thay support me to won casefor my wife and children property medical reports matters.

Excellent group for separated Dad's seeking emotional and legal support. Good knowledge within group happily shared to help your advance your court case for children access and settling finances

Wonderful charity. I first attended FnF harrow ( North London) David drove from London to Peterborough and represented me consistently and elucidated the UK law on the legal system, my rights and child support over the years. After stormy waters, bitter and sweet. I am a proud parent with contact. Shame about the UK Legal system towards fathers rights. The fight continues

An outstanding support group, charity and campaign organisation that is pioneering the way forward for transparency and equal rights for both parents. Without this group I would have been lost. I am the grandmother of a son who had his children taken away by the mother and false allegations submitted to ensure no contact. It has been heartbreaking but reading the stories, being part of a community and having access to meetings gives information, advice and the hope and knowledge that it can change. I will keep supporting my son and grandchildren so they are together in the future. Sara

Divorce can be truly heart-wrenching for families, and when it comes to navigating family court, the experience can be traumatic, often leaving behind lasting scars.

Thankfully, organizations like Families Need Fathers (FnF) are there to lend support. Their members not only offer guidance but also share their own personal journeys through this challenging process.

It's no secret that the family court system and Cafcass are in dire need of reform. The fact that Cafcass holds a mere 1-star rating on Trustpilot underscores this pressing need.

While some might assume that groups like FnF are biased towards a specific gender, my personal experience tells a different story. In truth, both parents are integral to a child's well-being.

The right of a child to maintain a meaningful relationship with both parents is undeniable. However, even in situations where no safety concerns exist, the hurdles that surface post-divorce, particularly within family court, can be overwhelming and make upholding this right incredibly challenging.

In this landscape, FnF plays a pivotal role. For fathers, the sensation of isolation is often overwhelming, and the fear that nobody will listen can be paralysing.

FnF stands as a beacon of support, reminding fathers that they are not alone and that their voices do matter. It's crucial to engage and to never relinquish the fight to remain a cherished part of your child's life.

Its important to recognise all the volunteer dads within F&F Harrow who go the extra mile to support others (I am sure that there are many other similar heroes in every other branch too).
So here's a shout out for:
Vikas,
Bahi,
Gurdeep,
Costas,
Vinay,
Dawud,
Stevie
and of course David.
Thank you Mr Paul O'Callaghan, F&F Chair, for being the central catalyst that supports all the groups up and down the country and for providing the drive and purpose that enable us all to push in the same direction with purpose.

If fathers are really as important as mothers, we need a much bigger voice on the national stage - that needs funding and political support. All that starts right here.

It's great fnf need to every single father. Without fnf lot of the father their hope dies to see there children with hafty solicitors fee.
I have my son regular contact and now he live with me full time. This is only happened because of fnf.
Keep it up fnf lots father out there needs you.
Respect and salute fnf from bottom of my heart

Very good information for Father's who are going through a divorce, and have children. Full procedure is explained, there is no charge, just buy a coffee or tea for the person before you. There is free legal help available, and you will make friends who will help you unite with uour children. And stop the ex going blah blah blah in a court.

This is my personal experience.

Go meet Mr. David Dunne.

Go on Saturday or get in touch when you need access to your loving children.

I have received best support and help from David and FNF harrow. I was desperate to see my daughter. Now I see my daughter regularly, I do spend a lot time with her, also can help her to grow and make right decisions on her way to adult life. That would not be possible without FNF. I'm glad that such support exist and help fathers to see them children. THANK YOU!

Very important and helpful organisation. It gave me good advice during my difficult family time. They deserve alot more respect for they important work.
