Arsenal in the Community recently partnered with parenting platform MusicFootballFatherhood (MFF) to host an event called Extra Time at Emirates Stadium.
The event brought together dads to have discussions around fatherhood, support each other and to share experiences.
“In addition to the mental health benefits, peer support sessions for men are also a good opportunity to learn from each other and think positive masculinity and how embracing emotion, sharing stories, seeking support and maintaining good male friendships can be transformative to our relationships, our parenting and our contributions to our communities and our workplaces,” says MFF’s Elliott Rae.
After the group session in the Emirates Lounge, the dads headed down for a stadium tour. They visited the dressing room and the media room before having the opportunity to take lots of photos pitch-side.
