# Event Details - **Event Name**: The Dad La Soul Sessions: Tun/ Wells - From Divorce & Addiction To Ironman. - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 23 Apr, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Thu, 23 Apr, 2026 at 10:00 pm (+01:00) - **Event Description**: Forget the pub, the networking, and the therapy. It's a Night Out for Dads Only with special guest: Alex Cole (MoreCommunity)About this EventForget the pub and the man up bullsh*t.This is not networking, it’s not group therapy, there's no space for awkward small talk, and there are no drinking games.Instead, this is a night out with fellas who get it, featuring guest speakers, board games, decent tunes, VR headsets, and conversations that matter.Special Guest:Alex More - More Community"Why Strong Dads Talk"Alex is a mental fitness advocate, endurance athlete, and founder of More Community -helping people step outside their comfort zones and grow.He’s taken on multiple endurance challenges, including three Ironman triathlons, but the real work’s been rebuilding himself - after years of struggling with relationships, low self-belief, and not feeling like he belonged.He talks honestly about fatherhood - especially the bits that haven’t gone to plan - and what it means to take responsibility and keep showing up anyway.No fluff. No fixing. No pretending everything’s fine.Just a proper, honest conversation for dads who know life’s not always straightforward.What it isn’t:• It isn’t networking• It isn’t group therapy• It isn’t lukewarm coffee in a dusty church hall• It isn’t awkward small talk or cheesy games• It isn’t about pretending everything is fine.Think about it, wouldn’t it be nice to have three hours of:• Decent chat, and cracking tunes.• Inspiring talks and Q&As with special guests and stand-up comedians• Time to hang out with old and new mates• Play VR and board games• Space to get sh*t off your chest• No awkward small talk• Freedom to move around multiple breakout spaces as you like.• We’ll also have breakout spaces staffed by wellness, mental health and physical health professionals for confidential chats.This is for you if…• You are fed up with not being able to or not being able to afford to socialise• You miss catching up with the boys (or maybe you don’t really like most of your mates)• You can’t remember the last time you met new friends• You miss stand-up gigs, live music or just a proper night out• You want to open up about how bloody hard life is, but never get the chance.Why it matters?Fed up with not really having a social life or mates to talk to properly? You are not alone.The older you get, the smaller your social circle becomes.Babysitters cost a fortune. Hangovers hit harder. Old mates fade to Facebook likes. Too often, your social life ends up dictated by whoever your partner meets on the school run.Fatherhood can be brutal as well as brilliant. And when dads ask for help, they often get brushed off or told to “suck it up.”That is why Dad La Soul exists.We reimagine men’s mental health with a Trojan Horse approach.On the surface, it looks like a kick-ass social night.Inside, it is a ready-made network of peers and experts where men can talk about the stuff they usually ignore.Generally, on a lads’ night, you talk nonsense and pretend everything is fine.With us, you laugh and then speak honestly about life, fatherhood and mental health.We listen without prejudice; that, my friends, is something quite special.Who is it for?Dads and male-identifying carers, 16+, from all backgrounds and situations.It doesn’t matter what your postcode is, your marital status, or the size of your bank balance.Whether you’re married, single, co-parenting, or still figuring it out, you are welcome. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaFe8JI7qj8)• 1 in 3 dads feel lonely most of the time• 1 in 5 UK men have no close friends• Suicide is still the #1 killer of men under 50Dad La Soul exists to change that..“If someone’s going to Dad La Soul, it’s really, really unlikely I know the evidence is with me on this one – that there will be some sister or mother setting up yet another charity because their son or their brother has taken his life.”— Noel McDermott, Psychotherapist🎥 Watch our TED Talk (https://youtube.com/shorts/j6-RkzK3G-8?feature=shared)Event Details:🗓 Thurs Night, 23rd April 2026🕙 7-10 pm📍Charlie's Angels Kitchens, Camden Road, Tunbridge Wells, UK, TN1 2QP🚫 Important Info❌ No mums❌ Chatham House rules: What you might hear at the event, please do not share.These rules are what keep it safe and trusted.🎟 BookingTickets are strictly limitedWe sell out every month.👉 Reserve your place now.Come for the chaos.

This is what we do.We work with national social housing providers, leisure centre groups, and brands to produce kick-ass dad-friendly playdates that feature everything from DJ/film-making/circus skills/special FX make-up/science workshops, soft play, dress up, sensory play and crafting.We want to create a place for dads to be the modern version that they want to be instead of setting them up for failure.These activities bring strangers together, challenges conventions, spark conversations and starts friendships in dads that perhaps can otherwise struggle in silence or isolation.With 96 men, aged under 45, being lost to suicide in the UK every week, the more we can do to get men talking the better.THIS IS WHO WE ARE:We are the dad that commutes all week long – he doesn’t see his kids during the week and hates it,We are the dad whose only social life revolved around the friends their partners had made on the playground,We are the stepdad that finds himself struggling as he tries to build relationships with his new family,We are the dad that is adopting and trying to get to grips challenges that, that brings,We are the separated dad who only sees his kids at weekends, and chokes back the feelings that he doesn’t feel allowed to talk about, because ‘real men’ don’t,We are the dad who isn’t afraid to change a nappy yet finds it hard to take his kids out because all the changing facilities are in women’s toilets,We are the stay-at-home dad who yearns for time with ‘the lads,We are the dads that are coming to terms with how to handle our child’s SEND needs.“We, as a society, try and run before, we can walk. Our shifting perception of what a dad’s role is in a modern family is overdue. Still, without fundamental changes to society’s approach, we won’t create the support network for dads to be the modern version that we hope they can be, instead of setting them up for failure.Come and join the revolution.    " } ] } ] ```
