The ESOL Skills for Life qualifications are designed to prepare learners for the world of work or citizenship. The primary aim is to assist you in becoming independent of others (such as interpreters or translators; be they professionals, family, or friends) when talking with native English-speakers, both in a work environment and elsewhere. By improving your English, you will also improve your chances of gaining employment and accessing information from service provides such as libraries, children’s centres, and local attractions.
We offer accredited ESOL provision across Lancashire from pre-entry level through to Level 2.
Run community events such as coffee mornings, English conversation classes, cooking evenings often led by a refugee or asylum seeker to teach about food from their nation, pilates etc. Also offer food and clothing help.
