Wellbeing Together at Parkside

Find your calm at Parkside, a weekly space to breathe, create, and connect. Leave feeling lighter, grounded, calmer, and more connected.
About this Event

🌿 Wellbeing Together at Parkside is a year-long programme offering a welcoming weekly space to recharge, meet neighbours, and build confidence. Each session blends creative activities, gentle movement, and mindfulness. All inspired by the NHS 5 Ways to Wellbeing: Connect, Be Active, Take Notice, Keep Learning, and Give.

We co-design with local residents, collaborate with volunteers and guest speakers, and create a calm, inclusive space for everyone. The aim is simple: reduce isolation, nurture wellbeing, and strengthen a caring local community.

The 5 Ways to Wellbeing in Action
Connect – make friends and build community

• Warm welcome and connection time for reflection and sharing.
• Group discussions, storytelling, and creative collaboration.

Be Active – move gently and mindfully

• Gentle movement such as Qi Gong, Tai Chi-style stretching, or mindful walking.
• Focus on easing the body, improving flexibility, and reconnecting through breath and movement.

Take Notice – be present and mindful

• Mindfulness moments with easy breathing, grounding, and 5-senses awareness.
• Practices to calm the mind and bring awareness to the present moment.

Keep Learning – explore and grow together

• Creative health activities: art, storytelling, and mindful crafts.
• Short talks and workshops on healthy living, resilience, and community wellbeing.

Give – share and support one another

• Opportunities to volunteer, co-facilitate, or simply offer kindness and presence.
• A culture of mutual care, generosity, and shared responsibility.

Who It’s For

Everyone is welcome, especially:

• Residents from all backgrounds who want to meet new people
• Anyone wanting to boost wellbeing, confidence, and community belonging
• Older adults who enjoy gentle activity and connection
• Parents, carers, and families looking for positive shared time

Why It Helps

Regular, calm gatherings rooted in joy and compassion can lift mood, build friendships, and grow confidence, creating real ripple effects of resilience, dignity, and belonging.
