ABOUT
Fenland PALS provides informal English activities to compliment formal ESOL and help learners build everyday language confidence.
We support people who have limited English skills and are new to living in the fenland area. Fenland PALS is committed to making a real difference and bringing about positive change in the lives of the people we support. We like to share the inspiring stories of individuals whose lives have been positively impacted by our workshops. Each learner will create scrapbook pages for a variety of topics. These will be personalised to each learner, with translations and images to aid English skills.
We are based in March Library, Cambridgeshire.This is funded by the UK Government until the end of March 2026.
Free of charge to approved members. Please complete the enquiry form to see if you are eligible. We look forward to hearing from you!
