The Berkshire Neighbourhood Learning Centres Partnership is a network of organisations that is dedicated to providing advice and learning opportunities that will enhance the wellbeing, confidence and employability of people in Berkshire communities.

As well as providing general information about organisations, centres, events and learning opportunities across Berkshire to the public, the BNLCP website invites any organisation of any size with the background and motivation described above to join as a partner. Partners are those with an interest in local learning and support in Berkshire.  We'd like all Berkshire-based interest groups, help and advice services and self-help groups, where learning or personal development features in their activities to join this site. This will allow it to become a rich source of up to date information about the best possible opportunites for you and your learners.
Partnership brings a whole bundle of benefits, a few of these being:

  • The opportunity to promote your organisation or centre and your activities
  • The opportunity to use your BNLCP webpage as your own organisation’s website, hosted and paid for by us but you keep it up to date.
  • Access to all of the Funding alerts on the website.
  • Access to case studies, projects and best practice. (Somebody else may well have solved your issue before)

And all this is free! So if you want to enjoy all of the above just click on ‘Join us’ and take it from there.
