Bradford Council is encouraging local people to move back into learning with a free course in reading, writing and arithmetic.

Following a successful pilot in the spring, Bradford Libraries has teamed up again with Forster Community College to run the seven-week Return to Learn course.

The low-key sessions will help people to brush up on their basic reading, writing, punctuation and maths. The course will also include a one-to-one advice session and a chance to visit Forster Community College in the city centre.

The free course will start on Friday, September 21, and will run weekly in the Learning Zone in Bradford Central Library between 10am and noon.

To book a place, call into the library or telephone (01274) 434870. Registration will take place at Central Library on Friday, September 14, from 10am to noon.
