Nominations have been made and the men and women who are Brighton & Hove’s Happiness champions for 2016 have been chosen. Read on to meet them… This list has been created in association with Action for Happiness, Happy City Initiative, The Argus, Sunday Assembly Brighton and Bailey & French. Champions are listed in no particular order. Jeannie Hignell, Fitness Trainer With two nominations - Jeannie is a fitness trainer - but no ordinary fitness trainer! She is inspired by people for whom health and wellbeing is often a huge challenge. She considers the needs of the whole person, supporting and encouraging them towards physical and mental wellbeing.

  • Etches Along the Coastline and Contains Almost 500,000 People
    The Ebb and Flow of Resistance: Analysis of the Squatters' Movement and Squatted Social Centres in Brighton by E.T.C. Dee University of Madrid Sociological Research Online, 19 (4), 6 <http://www.socresonline.org.uk/19/4/6.html> DOI: 10.5153/sro.3502 Received: 10 Jul 2014 | Accepted: 10 Sep 2014 | Published: 30 Nov 2014 Abstract This article analyses a database of 55 squatted social centres in Brighton. By virtue of their public nature, these projects provide a lens through which to examine the local political squatters' movement, which was often underground, private and hidden (residential squatting in contrast is not profiled). Several relevant non-squatted spaces are also included since they were used as organisational hubs by squatters. The data was gathered from a mixture of participant observation, reference to archive materials, conversations with squatters past and present, academic sources and activist websites. The projects are assessed in turn by time period, duration, type of building occupied and location (by ward). Significant individual projects are described and two boom periods identified, namely the late 1990s and recent years. Reasons for the two peaks in activity are suggested and criticised. It is argued that social centres bloomed in the 1990s as part of the larger anti-globalisation movement and more recently as a tool of resistance against the criminalisation of squatting. Tentative conclusions are reached concerning the cycles, contexts and institutionalisation of the squatters' movement. It is suggested that the movement exists in ebbs and flows, influenced by factors both internal (such as the small, transitory nature of the milieu) and external (such as frequent evictions).
