Learn new skills for the new year!

Our brand new programme of courses for spring 2021 is out now!

Explore hobbies and new interests, improve your health and wellbeing, or develop your skills for employment with our spring programme of FREE* and low cost courses.

Anyone in receipt of eligible benefits will be able to book courses for free. We’ve reduced the cost of our courses for everyone else by 50% making our courses even more accessible and affordable.

Our community and family learning courses are for everyone aged 19+ and almost all our spring term courses are online. Expect the same expert tutors, the same friendly group learning experience, but online via Zoom.

You can:

• Learn a new language
• Explore your love for music
• Get lost in literature
• Brush up on your Maths and English
• Get creative with arts, crafts and writing
• Relax, de-stress and improve your health and wellbeing

You can even spend time with the family and have fun learning something new together with our family learning courses.

We also have some wonderful courses and volunteering opportunities offered as part of our involvement with Miner2Major: The Real Sherwood Forest. Thanks to National Lottery Funding, they’re all FREE too, regardless of income or financial situation.
