About

The Olive Training and Consultancy was established by Yasmin Rio Glover to support small charities, voluntary organisations, and social enterprises to become more intentional, purpose-driven, and impactful. 

Through a flexible and tailored offer, I aim to build capacity, support you to overcome barriers, and strengthen your team, organisation, and impact.


I know first-hand how challenging it can be to wear multiple ‘hats’ in a small organisation. We will work together to find and embed realistic, proportionate solutions given the resource and capacity available.


The Olive is a social enterprise, working to the interests of the social impact sector through strengthening and supporting the development of skills, services and processes to support organisations to remain purpose-aligned and to progress their missions and objectives.

WHY ‘THE OLIVE’?

The Olive offers a little nod to the roots of the organisation, bringing fresh life to an old nickname!
