You are strongly advised to enrol early to avoid disappointment:
By post
To ensure a place on the course of your choice enrol early by sending the completed enrolment form (see above), with credit card details or a cheque, made payable to WMDC, to the centre which is running your class. Enrolments for courses at village centres should be sent to Manygates Education Centre.
Please make a note of the start date and attend the first course session, as your place will be reserved unless we contact you.
If you are enrolling for classes at more than one centre, please send a separate enrolment form for each centre. Further copies of the enrolment form or copies in large print can be obtained from this page (see above), or by telephoning 01924 303 302.
If you want a receipt or confirmation of your booking, please send a SAE, otherwise receipts will be issued at the first class meeting.
In person
Go to the centre which is running your class, on the day or evening enrolment sessions, as advertised under each centre's details.
At the first class meeting
The class may already be full. A telephone call to the centre running your class is advisable.
For late enrolments and availability contact your chosen centre
Many of the advertised courses and some new ones are offered again in Spring and Summer. If you wish to join a course throughout the year contact your local centre for vacancies.
