Happier January | Action for Happiness

It’s the ‘Great Winter Get Together’ this coming weekend (12th - 15th Jan), inspired by the Jo Cox Foundation.  https://www.jocoxfoundation.org/winter-toolkit/

The Great Winter Get Together

The Great Winter Get Together (12-15 January 2024) is run by The Jo Cox Foundation. As a charity, the Foundation makes meaningful change on issues that the late Jo Cox MP was passionate about. The charity works in three areas: nurturing stronger communities, championing respect in politics and advocating for a fairer world. Underpinning this work is the understanding that we have more in common than that which divides us.
