02 Activities

What the charity does

We provide for the advancement of education for older people and those retired from full time work, including associated activities conducive to learning and personal development. To do this we provide a base which enables members to share educational, creative and leisure activities by forming interest groups run and taught by themselves with no distinction between teachers and learners.
