As the largest voluntary sector provider of adult education, we deliver over 9,500 part-time courses for over 70,000 students across England and Scotland. We bring education into the heart of communities, providing high-quality, student-centred and tutor-led education to adults, whatever your age or stage in life.

Not everyone has access to the opportunities provided by education. We believe they should. That’s why we at the WEA help adults learn, no matter where they are, no matter what their circumstances.

We’ve been helping adults to learn since 1903, and with 2,300 course locations around the country, it means there is a WEA within the reach of 80% of the people that need it most. We take our courses out into communities nationwide, reaching people that conventional adult education can’t because they are often the ones that need it most.

Our professional tutors take the time to build trust and empathy with each student we teach, so we understand how learning can improve their lives, not just what their learning needs are inside the classroom. See how WEA courses have changed the lives of people like Lisa, Margaret, a community in Rochdale and many more people by reading our inspiring stories.

Here are 10 reasons to sign up to a WEA course today:

1. Discover a hidden talent
2. Reignite a former passion
3. Boost your confidence and self-esteem
4. Improve your wellbeing
5. Make new friends
6. Meet people that share the same interests
7. Connect with your local community
8. Become more active
9. Keep your mental faculties sharp
10. Learn new skills

'Having worked in the care sector for 20+ years, I have a passion and enthusiasm for enabling people to be more independent and feel more confident.  The sessions I deliver are specialist, evidence based, effective exercises for all people, especially older people, disabled people and stroke survivors.'

The service can support people who;

• have been assessed by Adult Health & Social Care but are ineligible for statutory services

• have a history that shows they might put their accommodation at risk without intervention and support

• have a need that is likely to require longer term but low level housing- related support.

We work with people who have a wide range of support needs, such as Autism, learning disabilities, Asperger’s or following a brain injury, or where they don’t meet the criteria for statutory adult social care, among others.

The service will be really flexible and service users will be able to have a say in how they are supported and what their needs are. We can help with finding accommodation, accessing specialist services, budgeting and claiming benefits among many other things.

We can offer support in a range of ways, which could include in own homes and in the community, to help maintain independence. The support is linked to the service user and not their tenancy, so if they move within Nottinghamshire we can continue to support them.

Based on the application, assessment and feedback that we receive from an agency, a member of the team will decide whether this service will be beneficial or not. If so they will be in contact within ten days of the referral.
