At Last: The Appropriate Response to Public Demand
for a Mental Health Revolution
People increasingly demand better mental health resources.
-
9,000,000 people in the UK feel lonely.
-
21% of adults experienced some form of depression in 2021, double the pre-pandemic rate.
-
74% of people have felt so stressed they have been overwhelmed or unable to cope.
I say put mental health first.
We need to bring mental health into
the light.
Asking for help is not a weakness. As a matter of fact, asking for help is our superpower.

I truly believe that good mental health - mental fitness - is the key to powerful leadership, productive communities and a purpose-driven self.
At PosiFest, we celebrate
doing better together.
Every word, sound and action at PosiFest is curated to share the principles of positive psychology.
What is Positive Psychology?
Positive Psychology is the branch of psychology dedicated to understanding how to help people thrive and flourish. Thirty+ years of research have yielded a lot of practical, actionable results; evidence that inner joy and happiness can be developed and strengthened in all people.
At PosiFest, we empower you to learn the insights discovered by this field, in a fun, engaging, pro-social environment. Come have fun with us and pick-up new tools, tips and perspectives to make your world a more positive place.
Positive Psychology teaches us that the following elements are key to human flourishing:
Gratitude
Coping with Stress
Optimism
Self-Acceptance
Resilience
Goal-Setting
Engagement with the World
Living a Meaningful Life
Grit
Join PosiFest for a full day of music, games and activities, and get insights on how to develop these skills to live a better life, and how to help your friends and family, too.
Reviews of PosiFest 2020:
"This is the best thing that we can do while we are here in this world."
Her Excellency Ms. Maria Teresa Mesquita Pessôa, Ambassador of Brazil in Nepal
"I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT YOUR VIDEOS HAVE HELPED ME MORE THAN THE NHS IN UNDERSTANDING MY MOODS AND EMOTIONS."
PosiFest 2020 attendee
"The joy, the glitter, the tackling demons until they turn into angels... what you are doing SERIOUSLY matters. And rocks!"
Shannon Cutts
CEO, Mentor Connect Ed
“Most public mental health resources are only available to people in crisis, and even those remain largely inaccessible because they don’t engage people in the ways they like to be engaged.
PosiFest is changing that. We’re a real festival: it’s fun! You’re connecting with people, celebrating, playing together, and at the same time you’re picking up new life skills, tools and perspectives–backed by science–to help you make your world a more positive place”.
