How it all began
Something has gone wrong in the world.
​
We’re more connected than ever, yet loneliness is soaring. In the UK alone, over 7 million people feel lonely “often or always”, with loneliness impacting health as much as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.¹
​
Jobs are changing too. AI is predicted to displace up to 30% of roles by the mid-2030s,² leaving many questioning their place in the world. And even for those in secure work, purpose feels out of reach. Recent studies show that only 9% of Brits feel engaged and fulfilled by their jobs.³
​
We’ve lost something. A sense of identity, meaning, community. We wake up, work, scroll, sleep – and wonder, is this it?
This isn’t good enough.
​
We all deserve more. More connection. More purpose. More humanity.
​
Planting the seeds
We couldn’t accept a future where people are isolated, purposeless or replaced. So we started looking for answers. Speaking to people. Listening deeply to what’s really missing in their lives.
The patterns were clear:
-
People want to feel useful again.
-
They want to connect, beyond their screens.
-
They want to be part of something bigger.
​
The first solution: SixMissions
That’s where SixMissions began. A simple idea: what if every week, people had small, real-world missions to boost their wellbeing, connect with others and create positive ripples around them – with rewards that actually matter.
But this is just the start.
​
The HumanKind Project
SixMissions is our first platform but The HumanKind Project is bigger. It’s a growing movement to rebuild what it means to be human - with future solutions already in development to bring people together in real life, to learn, to belong, to thrive.
Because this isn’t about a single app or idea. It’s about a revolution.
We will keep listening. Designing. Testing. Scaling. Until everyone feels they have purpose. Until loneliness becomes connection. Until disconnection becomes community.
We’re on a mission to make it better. And we won’t stop until it is.
