This campaign is being led by the Workers' Educational Association - the UK's largest provider of voluntary adult education - for and on behalf of everyone involved in adult and community learning in the UK.

 

The Government is currently preparing its Spending Review for the next 5 years and adult education is under threat. All non-protected departments, including Business, Innovation and Skills which funds the WEA work, have been asked by the Chancellor to suggest cuts of 25% and 40%.

Pre-construction Phase: top floor. Previously known as the 'Susan Passmore Room', this classroom will be used as an activity room by the learning disability support service in the daytime and will be an adult learning room in the evenings. It will have improved storage facilities, new furniture, an interactive whiteboard, better lighting, heating and decor.

 

This photo was taken in the process of stripping everything out - noticeboards, furniture, etc. The carpet has been pulled up to assess the floor condition and there is a hole in the wall where asbestos testing has been undertaken. All surplus furniture was donated to local charities.

WEA Herne Bay Branch organised a guided walk along the seafront on Saturday 20th June to mark Adult Learners’ Week 2015. Free and open to all, the walk was an opportunity to learn more about historic buildings and places of interest, and to introduce the WEA to new participants and members of the public. It was led by Ken Hando, an ex-councillor and long time resident of Herne Bay with a special interest in local history.
