the world wearing a surgical mask with emblems of corona virus We regret to announce the temporary suspension of our CABS-Cardiff Learning Clubs.

We will be posting important updates here about ongoing online opportunities to interact, socialise and continue our learning...

Until the current Covid-19 crisis is better controlled we believe it is in the best interests of our wonderful club members, their amazing support workers and our talented tutors to minimise the opportunity for accidental spreading of infection. Please do keep in touch.

We very much look forward to restarting clubs, some time after Easter, as soon as conditions permit. Be safe, keep washing your hands and be healthy. Please do join our online challenges as they arrive. (Missing you already... ?)

Learning Clubs

Who it’s for

Would you like to develop your basic skills? We don’t assume or need you to have great skill in reading, writing or numbers in order to participate. Where you can already read, write or use numbers there will be the opportunity to develop those skills further. We do ask that you or someone who supports you does chat with a tutor before enrolling in a class to make sure the support is suitable.

What’s involved

We develop your skills using a mixture of quizzes, games and activities inspired by topical issues, current events or your own personal interests. Examples include a series of sessions themed around the different countries participating in the rugby world cup competition, a theme around modes of transport or wild animals, we also celebrate the seasons and national holidays or festivals.

Outcomes

We practice adding or taking away numbers, we plan spending for meals, buying a snack in a cafe or understanding tickets. Basic number recognition is developed through playing games like bingo, darts or simple card games. And music, there’s always music! Unless there’s not – we do have plans for Quiet Clubs for our friends who don’t like loud noises.
