At the New Life Centre, we believe that staying active and learning new skills is key to living a happy, healthy life. Our courses have all been tried, tested, and loved by our community.
All Materials and refreshments included. With support from funders courses are offered from September -June
Aims
Through the adult courses we aim to create a space where people feel welcome and may learn new skills. Each term we change our programmes to meet the needs in the community.
Course Participation
- At present the New Life Centre is providing an adult course service to members of the community each week.
- Each term a new round of courses is offered and the number is on the increase. The New Life Centre evaluates courses on a regular basis to ensure that the needs of the community are being met.
- The people directly benefiting from the centre are the local and extended community, traveller men and women,, and in general people wishing to learn new skills both from Darndale and the adjacent community.
- For some it is their only outlet all week. HSE and DCC frequently refer clients to our Centre. We facilitate a number of clients from St. Michael’s House on our courses.
- We provide courses and services that assist people in the community in gaining self-confidence, and learning new skills that will hopefully encourage them to seek further education.
- Our main objectives for the adult courses promote a community-based education approach and social inclusion. The Centre actively promotes integration and inclusion in all aspects of work. We work to realise the potential of all.
