Meet the Founder

Hi, I’m Rosie — and this is why I started The Happiness Co.

In 2022, I was recovering from a long hospital stay and navigating a tough chapter with my mental health. I went looking for a self-care box that felt personal, but what I found was disappointing.

Most companies treated "extra" needs—like dietary requirements or specific emotional support—as an add-on or an inconvenience. It felt like inclusive care came with a price tag. I knew it didn't have to be that way.

At the time, I was studying Business at the University of Hertfordshire. A module on innovation gave me the push I needed to turn my experience into a better way of doing things. After winning a business competition and securing funding, The Happiness Co was born in June 2022.

Why we do things differently

I built this company to remove the barriers I faced. To us, inclusivity isn't a "bonus feature"—it’s the foundation.

  1. No Hidden Costs: We never charge extra for dietary, emotional, or social needs.
  2. Thoughtful by Design: Our boxes are built to be budget-friendly and accessible to everyone.
  3. Support for Every Story: Whether you are healing, growing, or just need a win, you belong here.

What started as a personal journey is now a mission to make happiness a habit for everyone. I’m proud to build this community with you, one gift at a time.

With love,

Rosie 💛 Founder, The Happiness Co
