WELL, I was really pleased to get a leaflet from Somerset Skills and Learning - a chance to join some classes.
After all, research shows that older people's thinking and wellbeing are improved by some forms of learning.
Meeting new people and making new friends; improving my self-confidence; accessing the digital world; maintaining my health; developing knowledge - the NHS won't need to step-in for years.
Where do I sign up?
Ah. Not in Taunton.
The County Town doesn't appear to have any courses. Not a one. Thanks.
