Adult Services

This program offers help to any adult who would like to improve their reading and writing skills. We train and match volunteer tutors with an adult learner and they work together on the goals set out by the learner. The service is confidential, free and paced to suit the learner`s life and ability. Generally, most tutor/learner pairs meet upon the availability of each others time frame.

We have an array of resources in our library for the tutors to use and we keep this library updated via fundraising, and selling books and magazines at the train station.
