What's On
East Manchester Dads Awareness Group
East Manchester - E.M.D.A.G is a group organised by local dads from the East Manchester area. It is aimed at getting fathers more involved in doing activities with their own children. Activities are varied - from days out at children's farms, to going to the pantomine, or just meeting up in the local park. It's a chance for children to make new friends, as well as dads.
