'Fathers plan to launch a petition in a bid to save what they claim is a unique group for dads and their children.

Dads Unlimited is a drop-in activity service held at the Stanley children and families centre, in Teddington, every Saturday morning, for about 15 fathers and their children.

The group were told that the weekly service would stop because Richmond Council will cut funding to the group from March 31 next year.

Father of two Rajesh Ruparelia works late in central London during the week and the group was the only chance he got to spend quality time with his children and do a range of activities.'
