Community

We're proud to be at the heart of our community and love to keep you informed of developments at Lancaster & Morecambe College. We're all living through uncertain times, but at LMC we firmly believe that providing accessible education to our young people and adults is more important than ever. 

As the Adult & Community Manager, my focus is to engage with the local community to ensure LMC offers a range of courses and opportunities accessible to everyone, whether it be career focused, further professional development, starting the journey to Higher Education or simply enjoying our non-vocational community courses.

This year we’re delighted to see more courses on offer for our Adult learners including:- 

Details of these courses and more can be found in our Adult Course Guide

COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT

The LMC Community teams carry out collaborative projects with local residents and organisations including:

  • We produced over 20,000 meals to be distributed out to the most vulnerable in our community, in collaboration with Eggcup and local supermarkets.
  • We joined the National College for Nuclear as an accredited provider of groundbreaking courses in Engineering.
  • We gave parents from local school, Ryelands Primary, free cooking classes in the basics of cookery, enabling them to cook at home for their families.
Working with Sandyland's Primary School 
  • We hosted video calls with local primary schools to offer insight into Further Education from a young age, boosting their confidence and aspirations.
