UDWA presents Boodle Karaoke!
Boodle Karaoke is a variation on the traditional Filipino concept of communal feasting called ‘Kamayan’ where food is served on banana leaves on a table from which people take what they want and eat from their own plates using their hands (‘kamay’ means hands).
At this fundraising event, members of the United Domestic Workers Association will serve ticket holders their Filipino food on plates lined with banana leaves and will be given plastic gloves to use optionally. We will also have karaoke going at the same time, for the ultimate Filipino fiesta vibe.
Menu:
- Vegetable and meat lumpia (springrolls)
- Vegetable pancit (noodles)
- Ensaladang talong (aubergine salad)
- BBQ chicken
- Rice
Each ticket entitles one to a plate of Filipino food and one karaoke song. Drinks for sale and additional songs are by donation. Help support the work of the United Domestic Workers Association campaigning for domestic workers’ rights and supporting victims of human trafficking and modern slavery!

About UDWA:
Established in 2012 as the Filipino Domestic Workers Association UK, United Domestic Workers Association is an organisation for and by migrant domestic workers in the UK. We rescue abused migrant domestic workers from their employers, and provide them with support and advice. We also demand the return of the rights from the 2012 Overseas Domestic Worker Visa, including the right to change employer, the right to a minimum wage, and the right to settle in the UK. We raise awareness about the abuse and exploitation of domestic workers and campaign for the recognition of domestic work as work.
