Adult Learning
We run a range of adult learning programmes throughout the year to meet a wide range of interests and needs. These are run by us or in partnership with other organisations such as Merton Adult Education and Children's Centres.
One of our most popular programmes is our Family Workshops. These are practical sessions that build on parenting and life skills. And, as well as dealing with some important issues are also highly informative and good fun. We are awaiting further funding before we start our nest programme.
