New Big Buddy Group
Designed to support older boys.
Big Buddy is all about building confidence and
resilience in boys who don't have a dad in their lives.
We match boys aged 7 to 17 with good guys from the community, Big Buddies, who volunteer their time. The Big Buddy relationship offers friendship, support and a good male role model to look up to.
