Who is Greeniversity for?

Greeniversity is for anyone and everyone! It’s designed for adults who want to learn something new in a fun, friendly atmosphere.

To get involved all you need is enthusiasm to learn or teach and a tiny bit of spare time to attend or teach a class (or lots of classes if you have lots of time).

Our Greeniversity learners and teachers are a diverse bunch – there are over 300 of them already! You can read a short interview with one of our learners and one of our teachers to find out about their Greeniversity experience...

The aim is to get more people learning ‘green’ skills – things that ensure a healthy, active life. This could be growing food, it could be riding a bike, it could be knitting, massage, yoga or dance!

If you think you have green skills perhaps you could become a teacher on your own chosen subject.
