Shaun-City (Co-Founder and Managing Director of the Award Winning Promotioncity.co.uk)	“Without our kids we have no future it’s as simple as that. Our children are our future and our legacy, so let’s ensure that they know who they are and they know the correct path to follow.”

Big Ted (KissFM)	"As a new father myself, Fatherstogether is that much more important to me and im proud to be part of it."

Lonyo (Recording Artist/DJ)	"The biggest hero in my life....my dad! Fathers Together is a great and innovative project. Good luck!"

Danny John Jules (Blade II, Red Dwarf)	"The youth of today need fathers not dads!' Keep up the good work!"

Richard Blackwood (Comedian/Radio Presenter)	"As a proud father myself I'm well aware of the importance and impact we have on the lives our children. Fathers Together is great innovative and i think our community needs more projects like this. The fact that it celebrates the good fathers out their also says a lot. You have my full support and if there is anything I can do to help....just holla"

Kojo (Comedian)	"The role a father can play in the up bringing of a child is very powerful. The mind of a mother is precious but with the added mind of the loving father, the kids of today can have the world at their feet if their backgrounds are stable and solid."

Aaron James Cashell (Recording Artist)	"This is a big issue all over the UK and I personally think every father should be involved in there kids life, It dont take a man make a baby but it takes a real man to raise a baby!"

TY (Recording Artist)	"In a system that doesnt give men a lot of power when its comes to legal custody of their children I wanna say big up to all the fathers that are making a stand about being united and being in their childrens lives as for those that leave it up to the mothers only ....? as a friend who watches both sides suffer the mothers and the fathers ..i say this ..... think about whether you doing something to protect and preserve the child or whether your just getting back at your partner think hard cos children do not remain children for long"

Ms Dynamite & Akala (Recording Artists)	"Family is the the foundation for any persons existence and strong family values will almost inevitably build a strong character. Likewise poor family values or the absence of a parent altogether is likely to negatively affect the growth and progression of a child. Much is made of the number of absentee fathers within the black community and the statistics are well known however we are dealing with a complex and deep rooted issue and often the causes or contributing factors to the problem are largely ignored. Through organisations like "Fathers Together" we can hopefully begin to accurately address this issue and bring about some kind of change."

Beverley Knight (Recording Artist)	"Fathers Together is not only a great idea, its something our community desperately needs. Especially in the times in which we live now. Serious Respect x"

Chucky Venice (Actor-Dreemteem,Batman,Footballers wives)	"I for one totally advocate 'Fathers Together'. fathers who are deprived of seeing their children due to marital or domestic disputes need their voices be heard. 'Fathers Together' grants us the opportunity get our side of the story heard and in time will make a fundamental difference."

DJ Blonde ( DJ)	"Dont want to be a part time father!!! Just a father. I love what you guys are doing as some of us fathers just wanna be that.....fathers! Keep doing your thing and keep up the good work"

Jasmine Dotiwala (MTV)	"seeing groups of young british black men going against the absent fathers sterotype is refreshing and shows maturity and growth in a positive way within the community-fathers have as much right to their kids as mothers and need both parents influencing their lives"

Von Mozar (Author Waterbuck Publishing)	"Fathers Together is a very positive movement that can only strengthen the awareness of encouraging more "Wotless Baby-fathers" men to be involved in the lives of their children. We has men should remember that we have a duty to grow our children into productive individuals and if you don't want that duty then wrap it up before you slap it up!"

Daniel Azure (The Daniel Azure Music Group) National Radio & Club Promotions Director	"I believe that the Fathers Together project spearheaded by Mr Fredi Nwaka is a timely and highly essential project which will act as governing body for the current and future young london based entrepenuers who have grown up without most of privilleges of a balanced family home which consisists of strong family values and high levels of knowledge and support found when you look at other cultural and ethnic backgrounds. As black professional who respects and appreciates true talent and hard work ethics, I believe this network will prove to be an essential element in the nurturing and development of our future black pioneers and success stories across all areas of the corporate sector in the coming years!"

Eddie Kwadjo Danso (Author)	"..if ever there was a project worth supporting, this definitely gets my vote. this project puts value back into being human again and it is quite heart warming to think that with all the badness and madness that's going on in our society someone is willing to put in the effort to ensure a better, brighter and safer future...BIG UP!!!! We've all heard the saying...children are the future..if that's the case then why don't we men (the back bones of our families) play a more active role. being a dad is only a title until you paly an active role in your child's up bringing. when it comes to children...this is my view..... ...a second of neglection equals a minute of confusion but a minute of affection equals a life time of direction"

UK Apache ( Recording Artist)	"This is exactly what we need. Fathers Together is a postive step to high light the fathers who are making a difference and breaking down the typical stereotype. Yes we no there is a issue but you cant have change unless you high light the heroes ( Real Fathers) and not just baby fathers. My view is a simple one and direct Responsibillity! Its the responsibillity of the father to be a Man and grow up, stop thinking about himself and put his child first.To be in their childs live financtually,spiritually and emotionally, remember that child is a part of you."

Antoine Dixon-bellot ( Mastermind Productions)	"A fathers involvement is detrimental to the success and upbringing of his child. I feel honoured to have been involved in the project having been given the opportunity to direct, film and edit the signature track 'just wanna see my kid'. It is a very important message and something that is close to my heart and should be too all fathers alike"

Akosua Annobil-Dodoo, Fire Media UK (PR, Journalist)	"It's a shame to say that Fathers Together is a much-needed organisation in these days and times. My dad has always been a prominent part of my life, and I couldn't imagine what it would have been like to grow up without him. Th at's why it hurts to speak to male friends of mine who, through no fault of their own, are unable to be fathers to their own children. 'Fathers Together is a great mouthpiece for the voices of those men who have been immorally blacklisted in today's society. I wish the organisation, and all its members, the best of luck for a positive future."

Abrantee (Radio DJ)	"My Views are every child needs a father figure, in an ideal world it would be great to be in a relationship in a happy home with mummy and daddy, but if things don't work out and you have to separate, fathers should still be allowed to see their kids and play a responsible role In bringing them up"

Cyril Peter (Fatherstogether Photographer/ Freelance)	"Fathers Together is an inspirational idea. It something we unfortunately need to bring families and fathers closer to their children. We as a nation have let down our previous generation and it is time we make it back up. Anyone who is a father/parent out there please support this cause as much as you can, every little helps."

Mr Dagz (G-ents & Dizzleworkz promotions)	"A father and his childrens relationship needs to be active, existent and strong. I support Fathers Together as every child deserves the right to have his/her father in their life"

Cat Parks (Channel U/VITV)	"Having grown up in a one parent family with my mum being the one to provide food, the one to provide discipline and the one to provide love, she became my true inspiration and through her, she taught me my own strength as a woman. As much as I felt I had everything, and wanted for nothing, she always felt I missed out on one thing, and being a Daddys girl, so did I. I think this is a fantastic way for fathers to be given a voice in a sometimes difficult world where more than often it is seen as though its easier to walk away than have to face the pain and aggrevation of being a responsible parent. This is a great opportunity for fathers to be heard and to provide a positive and strong roll model for their children"

Michelle Escoffery (Singer/Songwriter)	"Father's are equally as important as Mother's in a child's life. Father's should be Dad's... Present, and encouraged and actually expected to contribute to their child's development every step of the way! I think this initiative is great and we all need to step up and be responsible for our children's future."

Jerome Creary (Fatherstogether Website designer)	"I've been assisting Fredi with his concept. I was cared for by my mum as my dad battled his way through a drinking crisis. For 7 years my eyes were sore from tears. We need to see more positive fathers out there in the United Kingdom. Good Work Fredi"

FIDEL Singer/Song Writer & Youth Worker	"Few things in life prepare you for becoming a father and few things in life teach you more than fatherhood. If we want to produce the best we've simply got to give our best...that's all they ask."
