In Pursuit of Happiness

It’s the beginning of the year. Daylight is still scarce. We’re all still shaking off the excesses of Christmas (financial and otherwise) and Summer seems a lifetime away, but does it really have to be all doom and gloom every time January rolls around? We certainly don’t think so and neither does the inspirational Action for Happiness Campaign.

The campaign has a simple ethos, asking people to make a pledge: to try to create more happiness in the world around them through the way they approach their lives. Inspired by this, we have decided to make a film showing how the people of our home town, Leicester, approach the universal conundrum of happiness.

Local Organisations – We Need You!

MGL Media specialises in producing inspirational, personality-driven films, like our recent ‘Life of’ series of documentaries that you can watch here- Life of an Artist, Life of a Writer and Life of a Pinhole Photographer – and now we want to find out what Leicester has to offer in the way of motivational good cheer.

We will be venturing out in to the city to speak to the public to see what inspires them and how they stay happy and healthy, as well as visiting local organisations and individuals who actively promote happiness and well-being. Perhaps you work for a volunteer organisation? Do you visit or run a relaxation class? Do you organise local sporting activities or encourage happiness in some other way? If you think you can contribute to our film, we would love to hear from you, so head over to our contacts page now to get in touch. This could be a great opportunity to showcase you and your organisation and to help put Leicester on the happiness map.

Smile, you’re on camera. See – it’s working already.
