Laurance Hancock, CEO of The Boathouse Youth (BHY) is the inspiration behind Happy Creative’s donations to help support young people in the community.

To show their appreciation to this incredible charity, Happy have been donating since March 2024.

Laurance founded BHY 15 years ago to help establish a positive, supportive environment for young people across Blackpool. His mission through various programs is to be able to promote personal development, well-being, and social connection for young people.

From the Universal Programme to the Pathway Programme, BHY equips young people with essential tools for success while also addressing challenges faced by families.

Another example is the Holiday Activity & Food Programme which ensures children have access to food and activities during school breaks, easing financial pressures on struggling families.

BHY continues to reach thousands of young people, providing vital support.

Through collaborations and partnerships with local organisations, BHY works to create a network of support that strengthens the entire community. Their work goes beyond simply offering resources; they aim to inspire hope, foster resilience, and build brighter futures for all.

There are many ways to get involved with The Boathouse Youth and support their essential work. Whether through donations, volunteering, or fundraising, every contribution helps provide the necessary services and resources to young people in Blackpool.

Happy Creative’s monthly donations to BHY contribute to the social value at the core of a contract they hold with Blackpool Council for SPF-funded initiatives with the Business Growth Team.

Through tailored marketing strategies and Happy Creative’s RISUS methodology they are promoting the Blackpool Net Zero Business Academy and Blackpool Growth Business Academy.

The marketing company provide branding, content creation, social media management, and event support to help these academies showcase their offerings.

From marketing plans to producing video content and organising impactful events, they ensure the academies have the visibility and awareness to succeed.

Happy Creative’s dedication to this charity reflects their core commitment to putting people first and making a meaningful difference.

The company is helping to promote a positive change by supporting the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a focus on Goal 2 (Zero Hunger) and Goal 3 (Good Health and Wellbeing).

Through their continuous support, they have already helped provide things like drinks and snacks at a number of youth club sessions, helped keep resources well-stocked enabling young people to participate in learning opportunities, funded a child’s place on their Universal Programme and helped to fuel their minibus, ensuring transport is never a barrier to access.

Karen Lambert from Happy Creative said: “We want to promote a positive change in our community, to make it a place where those who need it can access essential support. Happy’s values are to put people first, find a way and to give back to others, and through this social impact we aim to support this and show the love and care we have for our community."
