Clare Richards

Formally a teacher, I am currently the Chief Executive of the ClementJames Centre. ClementJames is a charity in London that supports nearly 3,000 people each year to flourish through the delivery of 4 aligned programmes: young people’s education, adult learning, Employment and Wellbeing & support. In 2007, building on the success of the children and young people’s education programme at the ClementJames Centre, I co-founded and am now a trustee of the national charity, IntoUniversity. IntoUniversity provides local learning centres where over 40,000 students each year are inspired to achieve. Alongside my roles in the ClementJames Centre and IntoUniversity, I have supported a range of local, regional and national organisations including the National Critical Incident Response Framework, Nottingham Potential, The Centre for Social Justice and Westway Community Transport. I am a fellow of the RSA.

Flourishing holds the key to improving everyone’s life and there are things that we can all do to improve our chances of flourishing and reap its many benefits.

What are you most excited about working on?
