This week we gathered at our beautiful YMCA Hawker Centre in Kingston for our annual Flourish Fest event, now in its eighth year.

More than just a wellbeing day, Flourish Fest celebrates our values and what it means to be loving, person-centred, community-focused, holistic and hopeful. It reflects our belief that people flourish when they feel valued, supported, connected and able to bring their whole selves to work.

From Pilates and massages to riverside walks, sports day activities and time spent catching up with colleagues over a burger and delicious BBQ lunch- there was something for everyone. Staff particularly valued the wide range of activities, the relaxed atmosphere, the opportunity to connect with colleagues, and the stunning location along the Thames.

A fantastic day of wellbeing, connection and community, and a reminder to take time for ourselves and each other.

🌱 A huge thank you to the fantastic team from Barclays who recently volunteered at YMCA South Ealing!

The Barclays team helped transform our outdoor spaces by planting new greenery, tidying communal areas and donating £500 towards the project, creating a more welcoming environment for residents and visitors alike.

Special thanks to Nikolay Venkov for helping make the day possible, and to our South Ealing team who supported the project throughout.

The improvements have already made a big difference and have been greatly appreciated by colleagues and residents alike.
