WILTSHIRE College staff used the half term holiday to promote learning in the community. Employees from the college, which has centres in Trowbridge and Chippenham, were out and about in a mobile learning unit to advertise free courses.

The courses have been targeted at people who are unable to attend standard college courses.

Santana Briggs, from the project, said: "We're aiming at people who can't reach the main campuses, or people who are on benefits or those who are older and don't want to make that step back into learning again."

The unit is a mobile classroom equipped with computer terminals that are available for IT courses.
