ABOUT HAPPY CITY
Bristol’s a brilliant city. As Bristolians – brand new or born and bred – we’ve a lot to be proud of. We’re creative. We’re spirited. We’re never short of energy. But if we all got a bit more involved, could our city be even better?
Whoever you are, whatever your background, Happy City is here to help you make the most of your street, your community, your neighbourhood, your city. Maybe you’ve got a bright idea and need help making it happen? Perhaps you’ve got a little time to spare or some knowledge or experience to share? You might have an established organisation, looking for inspiration, ideas and people keen to help out…
Happy City exists to spread happiness. To bring people together, making connections between communities so people like you can make the change you want to happen. We don’t promise funding or formality. But you can be sure there’ll be no fat cats, forms to fill out or hoops to jump through. Just normal people like you, working together and using what we’ve already got to make our city better, brighter and happier than ever before.
How does it work?
By shifting from bad news, fear and consumption to celebrating and spreading success and creating caring, connected communities.
It brings people, ideas and resources together so happiness flourishes in every corner of the city. Once we’re done with the corners, we’ll fill in all the middle bits, and then plant happiness all around the country…
The Happy City initiative is delivered through events, communication campaigns and an online community hub is currently being developed to replace this holding site. If you’d like to get involved, can consider funding us, or simply want us to stay in touch, please use the address below.

Best wishes, The Happy Team
