  I'm not an expert on this and hope somebody else can chip in too. My PictureThis app says it's a Jade Plant, so maybe this website can help (if the ID is correct):

  It's a kalanchoe. Thyrsiflora or luciae I think. No idea on pruning sorry but they're easy to propagate from the plantlets.
  

  If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

  I think you're right @wild edges.  If so, unfortunately the plant will die after flowering.  The offsets or plantlets can be grown on and you can also take leaf cuttings to propagate, as explained in this link: Kalanchoe thyrsiflora- The Flapjack Plant Care Guide - Kalanchoe (kalanchoe-succulent.com)

  Wirral. Sandy, free draining soil.

  Thanks all. Yes with succulents normally the plant that flowers die after, just wasn’t sure as this was so big & haven’t had one like this before. At least I’ve got the babies & can propagate. Been lovely to get it to flower. 

  Thanks for help & info
