Personally I create a save field on the form (just like it was a model
form). Then my view code looks like:

## views.py

if request.method == 'POST':
  form = MyForm(request.POST)
  if form.is_valid():
    form.save()
    # redirect as usual

## forms.py

class MyForm(forms.Form):
  activity = forms.CharField()

  def save(self):
    # do your saving here
