Who we are
We are Healthy n Happy Community Development Trust, an award-winning charity & community owned organisation
governed by local people, where all of our work is directed by local priorities.
All of what we offer supports & enables local people to make positive changes in their lives & their local
communities. From building confidence & self-esteem, to boosting skills & relationships, to getting more
involved in their local neighbourhood & becoming more responsible for their own health & wellbeing.
Our key purpose is to tackle disadvantage & improve lives and communities so they are thriving, resilient &
healthy.
We are guided by three guiding principles & frameworks. These are Community Development, the Social Model of
Health & the Five Ways to Wellbeing.

Since 2015, we have helped local residents, groups & organisations lever over £2million direct investment to
