Knowle West Alliance free annual programme for our community.
- Open to all local residents, workers and volunteers. Different locations across Knowle West, fully funded and facilitated by professional trainers.
- As well as an opportunity to learn new skills, it’s also a great way to connect with people from across Knowle West. All sessions include networking time at the beginning and end.
- We can provide certificates of attendance.
- A wide variety of topics are covered.
- Booking on Eventbrite is essential and, as places are limited, we ask that you cancel your booking if you can’t come so that someone else could benefit from that training session. If you cannot access Eventbrite, contact us: info@kwalliance.co.uk.
