Action for Happiness is a worldwide movement (founded in<br />

2010) of around 25,000 members committed to building a<br />

happier society.<br />

In summer 2012 the local Barking/East London Action for<br />

Happiness group was started. We are a social enterprise in<br />

the form of a local community charity; we are passionate<br />

about creating connections and strengthening social<br />

innovation. We meet on the first Thursday of every month<br />

from 7-9pm at the Spotted Dog Pub in Barking to share our<br />

creative ideas about creating greater connections, which<br />

leads to greater happiness. We share our ideas and vision<br />

about future events and activities we would like to see taking<br />

place.<br />

Our Mission is through learning, sharing and action we bring<br />

to life the 10 keys to happier living, which latest research has<br />

found tend to make people's lives happier and more fulfilling.<br />

Together they spell "GREAT DREAM".<br />

We are holding our very first event in Barking, which is a<br />

workshop titled ‘Introduction to Practical Meditation’ with<br />

guest speaker Roy Maunder on Thursday February 21 st . The<br />

cost is just £5 to attend the 2.5 hour workshop from 6-<br />

8.30pm.<br />

� Future events will include the screening of a film called<br />

'Happy' - an inspiring documentary about how we can<br />

all be happier and future workshops all relating to the<br />

10 keys and general personal growth & development.<br />

For more information on attending the events or to share<br />
