The organisation was formed in 1985 to give over 50’s an opportunity to take up new interests and to meet people. We provide a wide choice of subjects in informal daytime classes. All our classes are friendly and relaxed.
We are a registered charity and are not funded by any other organisation. Our thanks are due, however, to Kirklees Cultural Services, Libraries, various other venues and the Reporter Group for their help and support.
All activities are carried out at members’ own risk.
Tutors
All our helpers are voluntary, including Tutors, on whom we are totally dependent. We offer our grateful thanks to all of them.
