St Vincent Support Centre offers free help, education and support for those wanting to improve their numeracy, literacy or computer skills. Our tutor often works closely with debt and counselling clients as a way of building self – esteem and confidence as well as improving maths and money management skills. The learning service also offers free English language lessons. Clients are given an initial assessment so that learning is given at the appropriate level and proper support given.

Anyone can access the service and help is given on a one to one basis in a relaxed environment. Students can go on to take further study and take exams for recognised qualifications.
