Hapus - For our mental wellbeing

🎷Music has a way of bringing people together.

In the Get Inspired section of our website, Lowri shares the joy of singing and having a dance in the kitchen with her son.

🎉These messy, vibrant moments became a daily source of connection and fun.

Connection doesn’t have to be quiet, sometimes it’s loud, silly, and unforgettable!

✨ Feeling like you could use a little boost in connection, kindness, or clarity?

Action for Happiness might be just what you need.

❤️At its heart is connecting with people as one of the most powerful ways to build resilience, feel supported, and uplift others.

When we take small, intentional actions to care for ourselves and others, we help build kindness, belonging, and joy.

In the festive rush, even small gestures can brighten someone’s day and bring warmth to your own.

That doesn’t have to be a gift, a card or a social commitment, it can be a smile, a cwtch, or a shared laugh.

✨ Try and take a moment every day in December to moment to give the gift of a small connection.

🎄 Yule love this—your organisation can offer tree-mendous one-off Christmas opportunities for Tempo Time Credits🎄

This Christmas season, we’re inviting organisations across Wales to offer special, one-off festive opportunities to local volunteers and it’s never been simpler! Can you help?

Whether you have spare tickets, quieter days at festive events, or simply want to increase numbers in the lead-up to Christmas, Tempo Time Credits can help you make the most of the season.

Is your organisation looking to:
• ✨ Boost customer numbers during the festive period?
• 🎁 Attract new and different audiences?
• 🔔 Maximise your quieter times for additional seasonal revenue?
• 🌟 Give back and support your local community at Christmas?

If yes, then offering a one-off festive opportunity as a Tempo Partner could be the perfect fit.

Delivering the only National Time Credits Network in the world here in Wales, we’re excited to celebrate Christmas with partners who want to make a positive impact while welcoming new people through their doors.

Another festive treat……Morgan does all the work for you!

Let's celebrate the Welsh language!

We're joining the call to use more Cymraeg in our everyday lives - at home, in the community, and at work.

At Hapus, we believe that speaking your language is part of supporting your wellbeing. It connects us to our culture, our identity, and each other.

Whether you're fluent, a learner, or just trying out a few words - it all counts.

Let's speak it, share it, and support each other.

Shwmae, bore da, diolch - every word makes a difference.

Comisiynydd y Gymraeg Welsh Language Commissioner

Warm meals do more than feed us - they comfort us.
A pot of soup. Fresh bread. Something slow-cooked with love.

This winter, let your meals be part of your self-care.
Simple, nourishing, and made to be shared.

What's your go-to comfort meal this time of year?
