BRUNEI: New Defence Dads Network

All Services • All Ranks • All Grades • All Locations

Calling all dads, stepdads, single dads, adoptive dads, foster dads, non-custodial dads, granddads, and other male carers.

We are looking at establishing a new pan‑Defence Network for Dads, and we’re seeking expressions of interest from anyone who would like to help join and shape this community.

The proposed DAD Network would aim to:

• Connect Fathers across all of Defence

• Provide peer support for navigating parenthood alongside Service life, deployments, mobility, shift patterns, and other pressures

• Create a safe and supportive space to share experiences, challenges, and good practice

• Champion the voice of Dads in policy conversations and wellbeing initiatives

• Build an inclusive community for biological fathers, adoptive/foster parents, step‑parents, carers, and those supporting fatherhood roles

Whether you’re a new Dad, an experienced parent, or simply passionate about promoting positive fatherhood and family inclusion across Defence, we want to hear from you.
