December Round Up!
December Round Up!
Thank you for your support in 2021!
It's been another difficult year and we'd just like to say a massive THANK YOU to all our staff, trustees, volunteers, members and supporters for helping Dads Rock get through it! Without your help and support, many families would miss out on the support and community that Dads Rock provides.
Over the past couple of weeks we've held our final Playgroups and workshops of 2021. This included our popular hairstyling workshop on 11th December, just in time for the festive season (brilliant effort from one of the Dads who took part pictured below). We also held our final Dads and Babies Group and last Dads Buggy Walk of the year. We've got lots of sessions lined up for 2022 though, check out our calendar for what's coming up in January.
Our Dads Rock Academy students finished up last Tuesday. They've all been working really hard since September and you can check out their awesome progress on our Facebook page.
We were due to be carol singing in Asda Leith on Sunday 19th December with some of our Dads Rock Academy students. Unfortunately we had to make the difficult decision to cancel given the new covid-19 guidance issued by the Scottish Government. Along with providing some Christmas cheer to shoppers, we would have been raising much needed funds for Dads Rock. As with many charities, the pandemic has been a time of uncertainty and change, so if you are able to make a donation, big or small, it would be greatly appreciated at this time to help the growing number of families seeking our support next year. Please help if you can by donating to our Christmas Appeal.
If you're already thinking about your New Year's Resolution, why not set yourself a challenge and sign up for the Kiltwalk in 2022 and help raise funds for Dads Rock? With 4 live events across Scotland plus a virtual event, there's something for everyone. Visit the Kiltwalk website to find out more and email lisam@dadsrock.org.uk to claim your FREE place on #TeamDadsRock.
The Dads Rock team are now on a well deserved break, so they'll be refreshed and ready for 2022! We would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and look forward to seeing you in 2022!
