Adult Learners' Week Innovation Fund 2026

Adult Learner's Week

Adult Learners’ Week is an annual campaign which celebrates and promotes learning opportunities for everyone. The focus week will run from 21 to 27 September 2026, with promotional activity taking place throughout the month.

The campaign aims to connect people to a wide range of learning opportunities, demonstrate the benefits of adult learning, and celebrate the achievements of people, projects and organisations in Wales: Adult Learners' Week - Learning and Work Institute.

The Innovation Fund is available for adult learning providers in Wales who wish to deliver outreach, promotional activity or online tasters for the campaign week and throughout the month of September 2026.

Grants of up to £750 are available to organisations working in Wales who deliver lifelong learning. This grant fund is intended to support the creation of free bitesize tasters, learning events, outreach activity, masterclasses, learner voice or family learning activities, and to develop content that can be adapted to an online environment. 

Closing date for applications: Friday 3 July 2026.
