At New Neighbours Together, we understand that an essential part of integrating into the local community is being able to speak the language. We therefore run 4 ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) classes each week at our drop-ins. With integration and cohesion at the heart of our charity, we welcome any asylum seekers, refugees or migrants who wish to attend these classes.
The days and times are:
Monday 12:45pm – 2pm: various ESOL classes offered over the year, please enquire
Tuesday 1pm – 2pm: Mixed ESOL Class (Anyone Welcome)
Thursday 10am – 11:30am: Mixed ESOL Class (Anyone Welcome)
Thursday 10am – 11:30 am: Advanced Conversational ESOL Class
Our ESOL classes work to provide attendees with the skills and knowledge needed to build a life here in the UK. New Neighbours Together also runs advanced courses on topics such as managing rents and bills, employment and cultural awareness to promote this goal.
If you have any questions regarding our ESOL classes, please attend one of our drop-in sessions at St John’s Church Hall, Off Ivy Street, Burnley, BB10 1TD to speak to a member of the team.
