Happy Space is the preventative mental wellbeing organisation, protecting, inspiring and empowering young people nationwide. 

We want to prevent mental health problems from arising wherever possible through providing the resources that schools need to give outstanding wellbeing education. We envisage a time where mental health stigma doesn't exist and where every young person has the toolkit they need to help look after their mental health in the transition to adulthood and beyond.

We believe that Mind, Food, Body, Finance and the Arts are the five pillars of mental wellbeing. Those pillars form the framework for the beautiful guidebooks and accompanying 7-week lesson plans that we deliver to schools nationwide. Our resources combine expert content from thought leaders, engaging design and interactive activities. We target students in transitional stages i.e., from nursery to year one (aged 3-4), from primary to secondary school (aged 10-12) and from sixth form to university (aged 16-18). 

In 2021, our resources reached over 17,000 students.
