A 1-day course open to anyone wishing to explore the use of therapeutic touch to enhance wellbeing and improve engagement with a person living with dementia on their terms and with dignity.

General English 3 days a week (mornings/12 weeks)

By Swindon School of English

This course teaches you English as a foreign language. Starting from a few basic words, we then work though the structures of the language step by step, learning new grammar and vocabulary as we go. We pay close attention to pronunciation, and make use of the IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) to help us with this. The course is taught by a British English native speaker. But, because English is an international language, we will listen to various accents throughout the course.
