New club aims to spread happiness in Hastings
John Cooper, known as John C, and friend Danny Sloggett, launched Hastings Happy Club and are in the process of finding a venue.
The aim of the club is for people to meet and socialise, raise money for charities, highlight their work, and bring donations of food and clothes for those in need.

John said: “The name Happy Club came from my friend Danny, who is a reality TV star, who set up Jaywick Sands Happy Club in Essex. He was on Channel 5, which filmed the first Happy Club. He was also on Inside Out, which did a report on his club.
“The club is designed to give this town a voice. People can come and have a cup of tea and mingle with others. We will be working with local authorities, such as the council and homelessness charities.
“Since I started this lots of people have contacted me, wanting to jump on board.”
