Very much looking forward to this keynote as part of the CAVA Annual Conference!

It was a great event - some inspiring stories showing the importance of adult education and lifelong learning #getthenationlearning

Today, we’re at Portcullis House to discuss our #GetTheNationLearning campaign with parliamentarians! Thanks to our partners @ufitrust.bsky.social @citylit.bsky.social @aoc-info.bsky.social and Multiverse. Find out more and sign our charter: getthenationlearning.org.uk/get-the-nati...

A new report from @learnworkuk.bsky.social for #GetTheNationLearning Week reveals that one in five adults (21%) are participating in learning. Public #Libraries are amongst the greatest tools we have for addressing this decline. www.librariesconnected.org.uk/news/get-nat...

When adults learn, our society and economy thrive. 💡 Get the Nation Learning Week is here - the high point of the #GetTheNationLearning campaign. Together with our supporters, we'll be making and winning the case for lifelong learning. Find out more: getthenationlearning.org.uk/get-the-nati...
