Welcome to WEA South Wales Online

Cymraeg

The Workers' Educational Association (WEA) is a voluntary movement for lifelong learning. Our objective is the creation of an educated democracy in which participation in public affairs, and the knowledge that it requires, are widely spread throughout the community. The WEA South Wales is democratically accountable to its members and federated educational and workers organisations. It is inclusive, unsectarian and non party political, and wholly concerned with promoting lifelong learning in south Wales.
