“My youngest is chuffed and keeps telling me how proud he is. He’s coming on well now at school because I can help him at home with his reading and his English, and then he can go back to school and say “We did this at my mam’s”.”

Family Learning
“All the tutors have been very patient,supportive and friendly. I was very nervous taking on this course having not done any computer work for 19 years and they all put me at ease and gave me the encouragement I needed.”
Computing
“An excellent course which is helping me to gain confidence and knowledge at each session.”
Counselling
“Actually practising things whilst being supervised and being able to ask questions as one tackles unfamiliar jobs have been invaluable for building up confidence and stoking up enthusiasm. I’d love to do the courses all over again. There simply isn’t any substitute for real-life tuition, especially when it’s given by someone who know the subject inside out. (And back to front.) AND who knows how to teach. “
DIY
“I have thoroughly enjoyed the dressmaking classes and look forward to improving my skills next term. The feedback from our tutor Kate is excellent and the different demonstrations she gives in every class are inspiring.”
