How the Explore programme works:

The Explore programme is made up of three, ten-week seasons broadly similar to university terms in their timing. The three seasons are taught by expert tutors many of whom teach at the region's universities. The programme contains a varied mix of courses, lectures, study groups and walks including some practical art.  
A team of member volunteers plans the Explore programmes under the guidance of tutor trustees Bronwen Calvert and Malcolm Grady. The team is divided into the following subject areas :
  • Art & Design : Helen Watson and Margaret Adams
  • Culture & Society : Joy Rutter, Trish Hutson and Kath Smith
  • Narratives : Rita Prabhu and Angela Young
  • Perspectives : Pamela Denham and Joy Rutter
There is also a member led fourth season over the summer period. Click HERE to go to the Season 4 page.
