Radical Joy aims to reduce the burnout of people who work in social service industries. This includes educators, social workers, nurses, activists, parents etc. We want to remind people of their inherent worth outside of work, in hopes of creating mentally and emotionally healthy and balanced communities. We do this through workshops, retreats, and one-to-one mental health therapy.

The Right To Food campaign believes that access to food is a basic human right. We want everyone to have good quality, affordable food; to end the need for food banks and to eradicate food poverty in this wealthy country. This means the Right To Food needs to be enshrined in law.
Government at local and national levels need to take responsibility for policies that force people into poverty and destitution. We work to raise public awareness – through rallies, marches, street & festival stalls – that the need for food banks is directly connected to the collapse of our welfare system.
Latest figures from The Food Foundation survey published in January show that about 14 million people (1 in 5 or 20%) across the UK are worried about the price of food, missing meals and going to food banks. The Tressell Trust report published in February shows that over half of people receiving Universal Credit can’t afford enough food.
