Ceremony to honour top adult learners
Awards were being handed out to successful adult learners at a special ceremony tonight.
The University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) was hosting the Lancashire Adult Learning event in recognition of the hard work and commitment of adult students.
There were awards in 16 categories including a Carers' Award, Apprentice of the Year Award, Skills for Life Award and Older Learner Award.
Peter Garrod, head of Lancashire Adult Learning, said: "Lancashire has a long and proud tradition of providing adult learning opportunities to its residents.
"Funding to support adult learning has been stretched in recent years and has had to respond to changing government priorities.
"Despite this, Lancashire residents have continued to enjoy a wide range of courses.
"I would like to congratulate everyone who will receive an award."
