Feeding Families This Winter
“You saved Christmas for us,” Gemima said as we handed over four gift-packed stockings for her kids and three large bags of food.
February 12th -
Flourishing Families recently organised some training for our English class volunteers. Our English class has continued to grow from strength to strength with a brilliant team of volunteers who give up their time to teach and make contact with our students.
They have been keen to build on their teaching skills and confidence in delivering English lessons and MDA College kindly agreed to deliver some teacher training. The training focused on working with beginner learners, lesson planning and teaching techniques.
The volunteers really enjoyed the training and found it extremely beneficial. One volunteer immediately commented after the session, ‘I already feel more confident to teach!’ So, thank you MDA College for this training session which will indeed help our English class flourish!

We were thrilled and honoured to receive this prestigious award as part of HM The King’s Birthday Honours in November last year.
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.
