CALLING all dads, grandads, uncles and carers.
If you look after a child aged up to five, then Birchwood Children's Centre in Hatfield wants to hear from you.
The centre, located in Birchway, off Crawford Road, holds a free Saturday 'dad's group' once a month and is keen to recruit more members.
Community development co-ordinator Frances Dines said the group offers a "safe, secure and child-friendly environment".
"There are both indoor and outdoor areas to explore," she said.
"There are also healthy snacks for the children and bacon butties for the dads and carers!"
Dad-of-two Joe Walters said: "I come to the dad's group because of the wonderful playful atmosphere for my kids.
"Meeting other dads in similar situations has been a positive experience whilst letting my wife have a break - and earning me some brownie points too!"
The next session will be held on Saturday, June 20 between 10am and noon.
For more information call Frances on 01707 262648.
