Action for Happiness

Action for Happiness helps people take practical action to improve mental wellbeing and to create a happier and more caring society. Our patron is His Holiness The Dalai Lama and we have tens of thousands of members who are taking action to increase wellbeing in their homes, workplaces, schools and local communities. Our vision is a happier and less self-centred world, with far fewer people suffering with mental health problems and far more people feeling good, functioning well and helping others.

Blueprint for Better Business

At the Blueprint for Better Business we believe in uniting corporate purpose and personal values to serve society. We encourage businesses to define and operate to a purpose that serves society and respects the dignity of people, and to nourish a culture through which behaviours needed to deliver that purpose can flourish. To do this we have developed Five Principles of a Purpose Driven Business and a Framework to Guide Decision Making.

Human Values Foundation

Our aim is to develop, promote and encourage an uplifting, values-based, 21st-century education process, benefitting particularly young people, teachers and those who look after children.

To this end we provide universal resources that foster lasting, life-enriching values, which contribute to a modern, integrated ethical, moral, emotional, social and spiritual education, laying the foundations that enable all young citizens to achieve their fullest potential both during their school careers and beyond.

Over time, the enlightening and informative process and the essential life skills mastered empower participants so that they can aspire to excellence in their ongoing character development, lifelong learning and wellbeing and so lead happy and fulfilled lives as caring, balanced individuals and responsible members of society.

RSA

The mission of the RSA (Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce) is to enrich society through ideas and action.

We believe that all human beings have creative capacities that, when understood and supported, can be mobilised to deliver a 21st century enlightenment.

We work to bring about the conditions for this change, not just amongst our diverse Fellowship, but also in institutions and communities.

By sharing powerful ideas and carrying out cutting-edge research, we build networks and opportunities for people to collaborate – creating fulfilling lives and a flourishing society.
