For young people... (16-25)
Facilities are available throughout the day from 10am - 5pm Monday to Friday for college work, internet use or simply meeting up with friends over a cup of coffee.

If you are lucky enough to fall into this age category all our facilities are available free of charge.
Unemployed or returning to work... (any age)
Help and advice is available to enable you to return to work by acquiring necessary skills including literacy and numeracy, CV writing, job searches and confidence building. Informal training is available on a one to one basis in an atmosphere that is not intimidating or daunting. This service is free of charge.
Over 50s...
Small groups meet each week to enjoy learning new skills with an emphasis on fun. There is an opportunity to keep up with the grandchildren by using internet and email or simply designing your own greetings cards or making that special eye catching poster for the next coffee morning. Help and advice is available and if we can't help you, we probably know someone who can. A nominal charge of £1.50 is made for this service.
Community use...
For those who don't have it at home, fast broadband internet access is available at a very reasonable charge of £3 per hour for internet shopping, planning your next holiday, emailing or simply browsing.
