Tourism officer Louise Rodwell said: "Dads seem to get a bad deal on Father's Day when compared to Mother's Day, but we've rounded up all the best offers, events and things to do in the area for www.visitportsmouth.co.uk to give children of all ages inspiration on how to treat the father figure in their life."
