Keeping Cork Active
Cork Sports Partnership are delighted to host two training and education workshops as part of the Lifelong Learning Festival in Cork this April.
A week-long celebration of learning for everyone in Cork.
Each year, the festival offers hundreds of free events — workshops, talks, walks, classes, performances, and more – across the city.
It’s all about trying something new: from arts and crafts to technology, languages, wellbeing, and sports – there’s something for everybody!
The festival brings learning into everyday spaces like libraries, parks, and community centres.
