Happy Smiles Training is an award-winning disabled people's-led social enterprise, made up of over 90% of disabled people.
Happy Smiles was co-founded by a disabled young man in 2019, to address the undervaluing of disabled people and challenge the stigma attached to disabled people both locally and worldwide. Happy Smiles empowers disabled people to create and lead positive social change, by delivering inclusive training and projects to schools, community groups and businesses, using their lived experiences. Here is some of their work in action (youtube.com/watch?v=4NbkDXIAvmY).
They have delivered training and projects to thousands of people, with 100% of their audiences recommending their training.
They have also received recognition and support from national disabled and non-disabled leaders, including their patron Isaac Harvey MBE, the Mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham, CEO of Purple Mike Adams OBE and HM The King.
