Happilife CIC

17/09/2025

At Happilife CIC, 76.6% of our funds go directly into supporting the community from coaching and warm packs to engagement that makes a real difference.

The rest? It still works hard behind the scenes covering essentials like insurance, governance, and venue costs that keep everything running smoothly and safely.

We’re committed to impact with integrity.

We’re thrilled to share our Annual Report 2024–2025, capturing a year of community engagement, practical support, and real impact. From connection to care—we’re building momentum.

Already in the new year, we’ve already exceeded those figures

We’re going from strength to strength—and we’re just getting started and extremely grateful to everyone who has supported us.

This week at work, I set up a little adventure: a treasure hunt. Someone asked what’s going on when I explained “It’s a treasure hunt” he said I I hope you find your treasure.”

I looked around and said, “This is my treasure”

Sometimes the real treasure isn’t gold or glitter — it’s connection, laughter, purpose, and the joy of being seen. 💛

Here’s to finding your treasure this week — whatever that looks like for you.

Struggling with Sleep? Us too. 😴

At Happilife, we talk a lot about wellbeing and sleep is a big part of that.

It helps us:
• Think clearly and stay focused
• Boost energy and immune health
• Regulate mood and reduce stress
• Support emotional resilience
• Make better decisions and manage daily challenges

But lately, some of us have been finding it hard to switch off. Whether it’s late-night overthinking, screen scrolling, or just life being full-on… sleep’s been elusive.

So we’re sharing some tips but we are asking our community:
What helps you sleep better?
Any routines, remedies, or rituals that actually work?

Share your tips below we’ll try them and pass on what helps.
And if you’re in the same boat, know you’re not alone. We’re all learning together.

What a whirlwind few weeks it’s been!

Since June, we’ve welcomed 178 attendees across five fantastic community spaces throughout the borough and we’re just getting started!

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who’s opened their doors to us and made us feel so welcome.
And a huge shoutout to Sharon from SA Nutrition for her incredible energy and dedication we couldn’t do it without you!

We’ve got plenty of upcoming dates already booked, but there’s still room to get involved.
