Your opportunity to be part of the first international learning festival in Doncaster

Doncaster Council has partnered with Remake Learning to host the first Doncaster Remake Learning Days Festival (25th May – 3rd June) to offer engaging and inclusive learning experiences and activities for all, across the city.

We are looking to collaborate with organisations, businesses and providers in Doncaster to host activities as part of the festival, with funding available to support the delivery. These activities could focus on developing skills and interest within areas such as arts, crafting and making, outdoor learning, science, technology, youth voice, professional development and more.

The festival aims to celebrate and highlight existing learning opportunities, as well as create new opportunities that will spark new interests and passions for residents of all ages.

Remake Learning is an internationally acclaimed movement to make learning relevant, engaging, inclusive and equitable across and within local communities and we are excited to be collaborating with the organisation and becoming the first place in the UK to bring its approach to our city.
