Many of our courses are free (subject to status) such as English, Maths, Everyday English, Family Learning, volunteer programmes and beginner computer courses. Other courses (such as Childcare, Community Interpreting, higher level computer courses, Adult Health and Social Care and ESOL) are free for unemployed people actively seeking work, and cost from £3 per hour for those in work. However, if you are on a low income we can help you with the fees. Contact one of our centres for information.
Our Preparation for Work learner support service can help you make informed choices about your future, and the Talk English programme, which works with low level English speakers to improve their English skills and integration, has opportunities to get involved as a volunteer.
