WEA courses are fully funded by the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority and are free to anyone 19+ on benefits and/or on a low income.

Please find below information about our Autumn courses offer, I am also attaching a few pathways posters and our brochure. At the WEA, we specialise in providing supportive, inspiring learning opportunities, delivered by professional tutors who are experts in their field. We do this both in person at venues and online, so there’s a learning solution for everyone. We would like to reach those who are harder to reach, for example in deprived communities or from different backgrounds and anyone who needs our support. Our courses are fully funded by the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority and are free to anyone 19+ on benefits and/or on a low income. I would much appreciate it if you could share this information about our courses and programmes with anyone who might benefit from them.

Thank you in advance for your commitment to helping us reach those who would like to learn more, upskill and gain new qualifications. If you have any questions or would like more information please email us at cambs@wea.org.uk
