Flexible working is rarely just about policy.
More often, it comes down to how work actually works day to day - conversations with managers, trust, expectations and whether people feel able to ask for what they need.
Nikki will be joining Future Proof Learning for this upcoming online conversation exploring what flexible working looks like in practice, using the experiences of working mothers as a lens for wider workplace conversations.

This week is Mental Health Awareness Week so we wanted to highlight how much of an impact flexible working can have on staff wellbeing.
Our Flex for Life 2026 research shows that flexible working is closely linked to wellbeing - not as a perk, but as something that helps people stay in work and manage everyday life.
Flexible working isn't one-size-fits-all, but when it works well, people feel the difference.

The conversation around flexible working has shifted.
It’s no longer about whether it should exist, but how it’s working in practice and who it’s working for.
What we're seeing is a growing level of confidence from employers, alongside a recognition that access isn’t yet consistent across all roles.
That combination matters. It points to a clear direction of travel, but also highlights where more focus is needed next.

We recently launched the Flexible Workplace Accreditation , the first of its kind in the UK.
It recognises organisations where flexible working works in practice. Not just in policy, but in how work is designed, managed and experienced day to day.
Across different sectors and roles, we’re seeing the same thing: small, thoughtful changes making a real difference to both people and performance.
If you'd like to learn more about the accreditation, join our online information session on 23rd of April at 10am.
