This is a beginners ESOL for Life and Work course which is available to anyone who is currently studying ESOL with other providers as a top up or those who want are not currently attending any other provision.
The course is from pre-entry to entry 1 with workshop style activities for those who are more like an entry 2 level. Once there is enough people attending the group will be split and the more advanced learners will get their own classes.
The tutor is fully qualified and differentiates the lessons to provide learning for all attendees.
The courses timetable is;
Tuesday and Friday 10am – 1.30pm
If you would like to join please attend the classroom on the 2nd floor of the library and speak to the tutor who will enrol you.
The course starts on Tuesday 31st October 2023.
This community support group had been created since the war in the Ukraine. Where refugees can receive some advice, communicate and share their experience. Meet for social events and workshops. In addition there was a need for a children’s talking club to help them to maintain the mother tongue.
We can offer limited support (The Red Cross service on Tuesdays should be your first port of call). We offer a free lunch, sometimes have free sim cards, and can give very limited support with specific issues – contacting the local MP for example.
From the ‘Ukraine Unit’ we receive donations from the public, community organisations, etc from across the North West. Here the donations are organised and packed and sent to Ukraine. We also act as a meeting area of members from the “Chorley & District Support for Ukraine” group and also acts as a meeting place and volunteering opportunity for our Guests from Ukraine. We also provide items for the current homes of our Guests from Ukraine. The availability of what we offer depends on what has been donated and what is still available in the unit at the time of visiting. Most activities of this group are coordinated using the Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1121686242002113
