  • Specifically target educational and social disadvantage
  • Promote social inclusion
  • Foster personal development and skills enhancement for group members
  • Widen participation in learning by adults from all sectors of our community

Programmes should aim to develop the individual’s self-confidence and educational skills base in order to enable and facilitate their development and participation in the life of their community.
