You’re not alone.As you get older, circles shrink. Babysitters cost a fortune, hangovers hit harder, and old mates fade into the occasional like on Facebook. Too often, your social life ends up shaped by the school run.Fatherhood can be brilliant, but it can also be brutal. And when dads do ask for help, they’re often brushed off or told to “suck it up.”That’s why Dad La Soul exists.We take a Trojan Horse approach to men’s mental health. On the surface, it’s a great night out. Underneath, it’s a ready-made network of peers and support where men can talk about the stuff they usually avoid.Because most lads’ nights are about pretending everything’s fine.Ours isn’t. You’ll laugh, but you’ll also have the space to be honest about life, fatherhood, and how things really are.No judgement. Just people who get it.Come for the chaos. Stay for the connection.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.1 in 3 dads feel lonely most of the time1 in 5 UK men have no close friendsSuicide 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, PsychotherapistTHIS EVENT HAS BEEN KINDLY SUPPORTED BY THE FOLLOWING:The National Lottery, Children in Need, The Early Birth Association, Freedom Works and Southdown Housing.As Seen OnBBC • ITV • The Guardian • The Sunday Times • Radio 4 • TED • Huffington Post • Daily Mirror • BBC Radio 1📱 Stay in Touch🌐 www.dadlasoul.com📲 @DadLaSoul on Instagram | Facebook | TikTok|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZloZW0prgcc&t=1s - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/worthing/the-dad-la-soul-sessions-dads-only-night-out-games-and-chats/100001987930117495 - **Event Categories**: comedy, health-wellness, Entertainment, Nonprofit - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 40, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Worthing - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Freedom Works - The Mill Building, Worthing - **lat**: 50.81315 - **long**: -0.3683460000000001 - **full address**: Freedom Works - The Mill Building, Worthing, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: The Dad La Soul Sessions: Dads Only Night Out: Games & Chats - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/b94486d5d9e4b8b6fe4c6a476273c1f14545e2767d4c1375d818e045a69c2f32-rimg-w1200-h534-dc020203-gmir.jpg?v=1776807916 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is The Dad La Soul Sessions: Dads Only Night Out: Games & Chats being held? - **A:** The Dad La Soul Sessions: Dads Only Night Out: Games & Chats takes place on Thu, 21 May, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Thu, 21 May, 2026 at 10:00 pm at Freedom Works - The Mill Building, Worthing, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing The Dad La Soul Sessions: Dads Only Night Out: Games & Chats? - **A:** The Dad La Soul Sessions: Dads Only Night Out: Games & Chats is organized by Dad La Soul. - **Q**: Who is this event for?

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.    " } ] } ] ```
