Live Life Well Virtual Weekender is the UK’s first ever virtual wellbeing festival in response to COVID-19 and the current national lockdown

While life in lockdown may have paused some events for the moment, we’re delighted that the UK’s first online mental health and wellbeing festival, the Live Life Well Virtual Weekender will take place from 8-10 May. Happiful is proud to support as Media Partner.

The Live Life Well programme includes international experts, authors, advocates and industry leaders who are ready to share their own life experiences as well as actionable ways for you to look after yourself in these strange times.

Mental health advocate Natasha Devon, author Josh Roberts, BBC Radio 2’s Sarah Jarvis, The Money Whisperer Emma Maslin, Richie Bostock (AKA The Breath Guy), Pilates PT Hollie Grant, and comic performer Juliette Burton are just a few of the names who’ll be delivering the weekend programme of over thirty events and workshops. Every single speaker is donating their time for free.
