The Live and Learn Programme is designed to increase learning opportunities and promote well-being among Northern Ireland's most disadvantaged communities.

The project brings together 14 women's organisations across Northern Ireland to deliver a wide range of courses and programmes from ICT, Arts and Health to Aromatherapy and Stress Management.

Women will be able to access specialist supports such as high quality and affordable childcare provision and one-to-one mentoring at the Centres, which will make the idea of learning and education a real possibility for many.

The underlying principles of the Live and Learn Programme are to address and promote tolerance and social inclusion and also to contribute to the reduction of poverty.

The main priorities of the Live and Learn Programme are:

• to improve essential skills to meet social and economic needs
• to increase opportunity for community based learning
• to increase opportunity for volunteering and engagement within and between communities
• to improve community facilities, access and services
• to help individuals and communities to develop skills to make healthier lifestyle choices
• to promote mental health and emotional well-being at individual and community level
