St Nicholas Pathways School-Based Trainee named Newcastle City’s Young Citizen of the Year

St Nicholas Pathways School-Based Trainee Olivia Hughes has been named Newcastle City’s 2024 Young Citizen of the Year for her selfless charitable nature and fundraising efforts.

As a dedicated member of the Nobbys SLSC since the age of five, Olivia teaches modified Nippers to children with disabilities and regularly volunteers with sporting events such as triathlons and surf competitions.

After losing a childhood friend to cancer, Olivia began holding monthly craft sessions for sick kids and their families at Ronald McDonald House and is a passionate fundraiser for charities including Dr Chris O’Brien Lifehouse and SurfAid’s Make a Wave Challenge.

Congratulations Olivia!
