PHX Training is supporting learners in Barrow through its Multiply and Engage sessions, offering taster opportunities in maths, English and practical life skills.
Designed to help adults build confidence and develop essential skills, Multiply and Engage sessions provide learners with an introduction to accredited functional skills pathways, as well as tailored learning focused on everyday needs such as budgeting support and CV writing.
The sessions are aimed at learners who may be taking their first steps towards qualifications, alongside those who want to strengthen practical life skills.
Activities are delivered in an engaging and approachable way, with examples including baking workshops that help learners practise measurements and weights in real-world situations.
The sessions will be taking place at the PHX centre in Barrow on 23, 24 and 25 February. Learners are invited to drop in from 9:30am until 2pm.
PHX Training is delivering the sessions in collaboration with community partners, including Women’s Community Matters and Furness Multicultural, ensuring the programme reaches learners from a wide range of backgrounds.
Briony Fawcett, managing director of PHX Training, said: “These sessions have been a fantastic opportunity to support learners across our communities to build confidence in maths and English, whether they are working towards a qualification for the first time or simply wanting to strengthen everyday life skills.
“We’re incredibly proud to be delivering this programme in collaboration with our partners, whose support has helped us reach learners from a wide range of backgrounds. By working together locally, we’ve been able to create positive learning experiences that make a real difference and encourage progression.”
