Fathers Together Freddi on Mr Silk’s Drivetime Show

When I heard about this project I had to get invovled, 1st and for most its about encouraging young men to take care of their kids, to put it quite simply be a father to your child so hearing about them, whne they reached out for support Mr Silk didn’t hesitate!

Fatherstogether have joined forces with Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) to raise money and awareness in aid of one common cause.

The aim of fatherstogether.com is to drastically improve the well-being of children by encouraging and inspiring men to become more effectively involved in the lives of their children. We aim to highlight the plight of men who through no fault of their own are unable to be fathers to their own children. Some dad’s are role models within their community, yet to children other than their own.
Paradoxically, be it due to a messy break up or to the idiosyncrasies of the legal system, many men who have done and do all that is in their power to be the positive role model in their child’s life do not have the opportunity to spend time with and bond with their children.

On 12th December 2009 fathers together will walk 12miles from GOSH to the Windmill pub in Clapham South which is in the borough of Wandsworth, as childrens favourite character’s ie Spiderman, Harry Potter, Power Rangers, Teletubbies.

For those who dont want to get dressed up, just your support and/or attendance would be greatly appreciated.

Freddi Nwaka will be in the studio to talk about the whole Fathers Together Charity, what its been doing? how it can help you? and how you get invovled.

So make sure you lock in and listen to Mr Silk’s Drivetime Fri Dec 11th - 4-7pm

On the Mr Silk Banging Beats and Drivetime Show Bang 103.6fm
