Celebrating the King’s Award for Voluntary Service
We were thrilled and honoured to receive this prestigious award as part of HM The King’s Birthday Honours in November last year.
August 17th -
We are delighted to introduce our newest member of staff, Olivia, who will be starting work with Flourishing Families in September. Olivia is a language specialist and has lots of teaching experience with both adults and children. Join me as I find out a little more about her with the help of a few questions…
Hi Olivia! Tell me about yourself… where are you from?
Hello! I’m originally from Teeside.
What were you doing previously?
I’ve done a few different things- involving working and studying as a teacher of English as a foreign language. More recently, I’ve just finished my MA in Education Studies and International Perspectives.
Where is the most interesting place you have visited?
I love travelling and exploring new places! It’s hard to pick one, but I’m a big fan of Krakow and Rome.
What is your favourite thing to cook or bake?
I’ve got a really sweet tooth so basically anything sweet. I like to bake things that involve chocolate and peanut butter!
What excites you most about joining FFL?
I love everything that Flourishing Families does , but I’m really looking forward to working and developing the English language teaching side of things.

The Flourishing Families staff team is growing, and we're really excited to introduce to you our two newest team members!
Our work to overcome child poverty was the top story throughout the day on BBC Look North on 20th December.
We’re thrilled to welcome the latest additions to our team, Tabitha, Papaya and Josiah, our Graduate Interns, and Helen, the latest member of our cookery team. We can’t wait for them to showcase their experience, expertise and enthusiasm! Let’s get to know them a little better…
