Welcome to the Adult Education Programme 

Adult Education Programme – January 2023

We hope you enjoyed any courses you participated in with us this year. We are keen to share our new programme with you for courses starting from 23rd January 2023 and look forward to seeing you in 2023. The main programme has a wide range of courses including writing, health and wellbeing, walking, local history, art, languages, pottery and much, much more. These courses will take place online, outdoors and in venues across the city. We are fortunate to be able to offer concessions for those on benefits and would encourage everyone to log on and have a look!
