Members of our community brought the joy and positivity of International Pillow Fight Day to Brighton UK this year.
I thought i’d kick the mini-series off by introducing you to my life.
Let’s Gro, Groningen – a Happiness Festival in The Netherlands contacted me a week before their festival to ask what i could do to increase well-being in their city.
I’m not much of a social media type, so if you want to come along click subscribe on youtube, this vid is pretty much just for you. I’ll try to give a feel of the trip by creating a short video series.
I made it my mission in life to teach people how they can make the world around them a little friendlier, safer, and happier by using positive projects and activities to target societal issues, and so I seem to have talked myself into something a bit out there again.. Next Saturday, on the 7th July I begin the over 900 kilometre walk from London to Edinburgh, 20-30 km/day, carrying a fabulous free hugs flag created by Irene and creating a new world record for the World’s Longest Free Hugs Event in Terms of Distance to promote our platform focallocal.org re-launching
Most nations are no closer to solving involuntary homelessness than they were in the 60’s. A connected community solves homelessness on its own, and so a few years back i decided to apply the Focallocal model and see whether we could bring people together to tackle the issue ourselves.
Mission: Write to your positive friends and invite them to join us for our next International Public Happiness Activity. Our record is 16 towns, villages and cities in 2016. With your help we can beat it this year!
In February we received an email from WhatsappTV asking if we could host an Eye Contact Gathering for them to film and air on Sky One. As a great opportunity to introduce the idea to more people around the world i naturally agreed. Watch it here!
Switch on and watch us on Sky One this Saturday!
#whatsupTV came along to one one of our Public Happiness Gatherings to film it and tell a little bit about the story behind it.
