Welcome!
Festival of Learning is the biggest celebration of lifelong learning in England.
Our mission is to highlight the benefits of learning, celebrate achievements of adults who have used learning to transform their lives, and to encourage everyone to embrace lifelong learning.
2019 award winners
In July our 12 award winners and six finalists were revealed. Their stories help show the profound effects learning can have for anyone and everyone.
