• Report on and develop approaches to engaging with fathers mainly in the health, education and family sectors
• Help shape national and local policy to ensure a father-inclusive approach
• Inject research evidence on fathers, fatherhood and co-parenting into national debates about parenting and parental roles
• Lobby for changes in law, policy and practice to dismantle barriers to UK fathers’ care of infants and children
• Help mothers and fathers in the UK and internationally balance their ‘cash and care’ responsibilities and co-operate productively as a ‘parenting team’
• Are the  leading provider in the UK (and to an extent internationally) of training, consultancy and publications on father-inclusive practice
