Our Story

Our members continue to lead the way

In 2011 Founder Helen Oliver seen a real need in her community.  It was a need to provide quality interaction and happiness to adults living in care and community settings. 

So the mission began!  With a mix of her Yogic background and fun she designed an adaptable and fully accessible service and called it Happy Times.   

Visiting local care homes, centres and clubs and later opening our very own Happy Times Activity Centre.   

Our success we put down to the fact our Members have led the way from the very start and remains the most important thing about our focus and culture at Happy Times. Our team work closely together with our members and supports, sharing talents and passions and generating fun ideas that keep our magical moments flowing.

Helen remains at the heart of things and can usually be found in her bare feet at the Centre, chatting to participants and getting excited about their next new idea.
