 All Together Now Worcestershire!

Registration: from 10.30 to 2pm finish (INCLUDING LUNCH)

The WAIFS (Worcestershire Active Inclusive Forum and a few strays….)
present: All Together Now Worcestershire!

Aims were to understand why we as a (diverse) group of people came to Worcester, to celebrate out One 'Worldness' and to creatively start the dialogue on understanding each other better so that we build a way of honest communication and an environment where we can discuss sensitive and difficult issues more openly.

The day formally launched WAIFs and we hope to meet regularly, with a focus on making Worcester a safe place to live for all. The event was free [however donations are welcome to enable future events]
and supported by: Worcestershire County Hall and One World Week.

PLEASE NOTE: A CRECHE WAS AVAILABLE ON A FIRST COME FIRST SERVED BASIS
