Adult Learning

Adult Learning is: 

 

Lifelong – it never stops.

Lifewide – it happens at any stage we are at in our lives.

Person-centred – it meets each adult's learning needs and interests. 


In the last eighteen months, we have been developing adult learning opportunities for local adults based in our community—running new classes, groups, and courses. We ran some Wellbeing Cafes, invited local adults living in Middlefield, Cummings Park, and Heathryfold neighborhoods to try out some sessions to see what they’re interested in learning. We have made a daytime programme around the theme of Well-being to suit. 

 

We have run the following classes @The Hub : 

 

Art and Crafts 

 

Baby Massage (up to 12 months old) 

 

Community Food Growing and Gardening Group

 

Confidence to Cook 

 

Coping Skills for Anxiety and Depression

 

Family Learning

 

Health Issues in the Community (HIIC) 

 

Looking after Ourselves (Massage Therapy)

 

Sewing

 

Yoga

 

A ‘social recovery’ approach has been adopted to support our adult learners in recovering from the social isolation and trauma of COVID-19 and the pandemic ‘lockdown’. Our approach is both caring and supportive when we work with adults. We have a great team of tutors who offer a warm welcome to all our new adult learners.  

 

Please get in touch if you would like to take part.
