DETAILS have been announced for this year's free annual Festival of Wellbeing taking place on Friday, August 5.

Hosted by the charity organisation BCHA at Boscombe Gardens, the event aims to offer activities such as art, street theatre, dance, face-painting and live music.

The charity, which supports the homeless and other vulnerable people, is holding the event in partnership with similar organisations.

Jamie Clarke, Ignite lead development coach at BCHA, said: “This will be a great chance to find out more of what local support and wellbeing services are available in and around the Bournemouth and Boscombe area, as well as celebrate the successes of previous and current customers.

"BCHA’s own Ignite programme focuses on supporting people to find greater self-belief, break free from benefit support, get back in to work and live life.

"Ignite offers a range of workshops for people to choose from, which are all tailored to build someone’s self-esteem and confidence, and to support people to achieve their goals.”

The event runs from 1-4pm. For details visit facebook.com/bcha.org.uk or bcha.org.uk.
