If it is really really pelting it down, we may have to close, but otherwise, we can all shelter on the kindy deck. Fantastic coffee will be served hot, along with a selection of homemade cakes, including the kiddies’ fave, banana bread. Don’t forget your mug!

The forum is between 7.45pm and 9pm at the Tramshed Community Centre, Berry Reserve Narrabeen. Pittwater Mayor Harvey Rose said fathers often lacked the support networks that mothers benefited from when relationships broke down. “Some men’s tendency is to suppress their feelings which can lead to anger and depression,” he said. “Research shows that the suicide rate in Australia among separated fathers is 6 times higher than for those who are not separated.”* Mayor Rose said the forum was aimed at newly separated fathers who were redefining their relationship with their children and former partner. Topics covered at the forum include reducing conflict between separating parents; improving children’s wellbeing during separation and maintaining your involvement in your children’s lives. The forum will be presented by Bill Hewlett, a counsellor with Relationships Australia. Bill says counselling organisations have previously tended to approach the issue of divorce from a female perspective. "Men find that the only processes they're offered to deal with …. are ones that are alien to them – to sit down and have a chat over a cup of tea." But things have changed for the better he says. "Separated men should take the risk with organisations that they suspect will be unsympathetic because they might turn out to be more sympathetic than they think.” To book a place at the forum phone Robyn or Anne at Relationships Australia on 9981 9779.
