🍂 Autumn is the perfect time to learn something new!

As the evenings get darker and the weather gets colder, why not use some of that extra time to invest in yourself?

Whether you want to develop your career, gain a new skill or work towards a qualification, there are plenty of opportunities to keep learning this autumn.

Make this autumn the season you invest in your future.

🎉 Congratulations to everyone who completed their Level 1 Makaton course! 🎉

A huge well done to everyone who joined us last Saturday for our Level 1 Makaton course with Katie from Keep Signing!

It was fantastic to see everyone getting involved, learning new skills and developing their confidence in using Makaton to support communication.

We’d also like to say a big thank you to the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust whose funding made this course possible for our Armed Forces community.

We hope everyone enjoyed the day and can put their new skills into practice!
