Practical self-compassion for the people who need it most.
We teach self-compassion in a simple, practical way — built around real people and their real struggles, so it actually helps in daily life. The money from our paid classes pays for our charity work.
“It is very self-calming, and after you realise, you feel much better.”Participant, seniors class
More than a class.
H Project is a social enterprise. We run practical self-compassion classes — and we do more than that.
Every paid class helps fund our charity work: Self-compassion classes for those who cannot pay, letters to prisoners, and charity outings with ex-inmates. When you learn to be kinder to yourself with us, you also help bring that same kindness to someone who needs it.
How your support creates impact.
Self-compassion classes
Practical classes that teach people to be kinder to themselves. We have run free classes for seniors, and the response was great — one group even clapped at the end.

Letters to prisoners
We write to prisoners, so that they know someone outside still remembers them. Our founder has written more than 35,000 letters.

Charity outings with ex-inmates
We bring former inmates out to do charity work — a way to contribute and be part of the community again.

Our paid classes keep H Project running. Every one of them helps fund free self-compassion classes for seniors, ex-inmates and more, our letters to prisoners, and our charity work. You help yourself, and you help others at the same time.
Built around real struggles, not a fixed script.
Built around real struggles
We shape each class around the real problems people face, not a one-size-fits-all curriculum.
Practical, not just theory
Simple techniques people can use the same day.
Gentle, never on the spot
Many people are shy in groups, so we use quiet guided visualisation instead of asking anyone to speak up.
Hear it from the people we serve.

H Project was founded by Dr Roger Tan, author of Dear Inmates — a belief that everyone deserves to be treated with kindness, carried into communities everywhere. Read his story →
