Welcome to The Joyful Activists
​
A global community supporting the wellbeing of activists, humanitarians, and changemakers.
​
The world’s challenges can feel overwhelming, and the urgency to act often leaves little room to pause and recharge. At The Joyful Activists, we believe that resilience, hope, and joy are essential for sustained activism.
​
You don’t have to carry the weight of the world alone. Join us to nurture your wellbeing, connect with others, and rediscover the power of hope.
Together, we can make a difference without losing ourselves in the process.
why we exist
We're building a community where two essential truths can coexist:
You’re deeply committed to your work, and you need a space to recharge and nurture your wellbeing.
We're here to create uplifting, trauma-informed workshops that prioritise our wellbeing and cultivate joy.
We curate virtual and in-person wellbeing workshops, community events and retreats.
We design bespoke organisational workshops for charities and NGOs, to raise the volume on conversations about mental health and wellbeing at work.
Let’s look after ourselves together.
"Caring for myself isn't self indulgence,
it is self preservation
and that is an act of political warfare"
~ Audre Lorde
