New dads in Croydon are getting extra support with the launch of a free app designed to help them through the early days of parenthood.

DadPad, launched by Croydon Council on World Sleep Day, gives new dads NHS-backed tips on baby care and bonding.

It also includes tips on bonding with your newborn, mental health support for dads and their partners, and links to local support groups.

A new YouTube video series featuring local fathers sharing their experiences has also been released alongside the app.
