Scarborough WEA encourages people to exercise their grey matter in the New Year
Whatever your New Year’s Resolutions, exercising the grey matter has never been easier thanks to the Scarborough Branch of the Workers’ Education Association.
Courses begin in January 2023 and take in a wide-range of subjects, from creative writing to yoga.
WEA tutor, George Cromack, said: “January is not only the beginning of a brand-new year, it is also a chance to learn a new subject or skill.
“The local branch of WEA is very active, with venues including the Stephen Joseph Theatre (SJT) and the YMCA theatre.
“Some students will be able to attend courses for free and there is always a great mix of attendees.
