Bridging 'the learning divide' is a key factor in tackling social exclusion. We are committed to fostering learning for all adults, regardless of location, socio-economic status, employment, disability, age, gender, religion and ethnicity.
We place particular priority on engaging and meeting the needs of socially excluded communities and individuals, through our core work and additional projects.
