Literacies Dundee

Literacies Dundee We are a team of adult learning workers offering support with reading, writing, numbers and computing

We are a team of adult learning workers who support anyone who isn't confident about handling some of the communication issues that everyday life can throw at us. This can mean there are worries about using and understanding numbers, working with computers and mobiles, listening and following what someone else is saying and feeling under pressure when reading or writing. You let us know what you feel your issues are and we will work with you to find some solutions. It's free, as confidential as you need it to be and we'll try our best to meet at a place and time that suits you.
