Read moreIts initiatives aim to enhance skills, considering knowledge as an essential tool for societal success. Daily academic sessions and practical learning opportunities, along with expert-led guest sessions, form integral parts of its approach.

The centres operate 24/7, seven days a week, providing opportunities for those seeking to improve their lives. The organisation consciously reaches out to individuals from lower socio-economic backgrounds, working towards their integration into wider society and providing opportunities they may not have previously had.
