The Big Worcester DoodleSaurus!

Doodling and colouring are more than just pastimes. Being creative not only promotes relaxation but also enhances coping skills, providing participants with a sense of accomplishment and support.

At ONSIDE, our dedicated team of Wellbeing and Emotional Support Practitioners offer art activities as a calming creative outlet for those dealing with anxiety and poor mental health. Through self-expression and connection, we aim to boost mental wellbeing.

This year, we’re excited to partner with the Worcester Show, which takes place on Pitchcroft on Sunday 11th August. We’ll be hosting an Art for Wellbeing activity for children in the Community Marquee.

Worcester England Filipino Association is a community of Filipinos and their families who live in and around Worcestershire. The main purpose of our organisation is to promote the vibrant culture of the Philippines in the heart of England. We also aim to provide emotional and moral support to Filipinos who live here, especially for those who are new to Worcestershire. Our ardent desire is to help them settle comfortably and acculturate into the local community and make it their home away from home.

Look out for us at the Worcester Show, try on some traditional Filipino clothes, enjoy our band and watch our dancers at the main stage!

We are a network of people, organisations and community groups who have been appalled by the impact on fellow human beings by war, totalitarianism and religious intolerance. We want to support those people who have been displaced from their country of origin to be able to live a meaningful and prosperous life in Worcester.
