Action for Happiness Hub Website

Creating a Healthier, Happier,

Kinder Northamptonshire!

Join The Movement

Action for Happiness Hubs are places where a committed
group of volunteers work together regularly to spread
Action for Happiness ideas and resources in their local
area. They engage with local partners, including schools,
health services and community groups through
networking, events and campaigns.

What we do - we’re a volunteer-led hub dedicated to promoting
positive mental wellbeing through community action. By
supporting Champions, Volunteers and the Community of Practice
(CoP), we help individuals, organisations and communities to
create a happier, healthier and kinder Northamptonshire.

Our Approach:

Evidence-Based Wellbeing – Guided by the 10 Keys to
Happier Living, we provide simple, actionable steps to improve
emotional well-being.
Community-Led Action – Empowering volunteers and
champions to inspire change and lead well-being initiatives in
their local communities.
Collaboration & Learning – Fostering shared growth and
connection through our Community of Practice, where ideas
and resources are exchanged.
