Multiply

Multiply is a new UK Government funded programme to help adults improve their numeracy skills.  

Who’s it for?

Our free Multiply courses are for anyone living in Torfaen County Borough over the age of 19, and do not already have a GCSE at grade C, or equivalent, in Maths. If you are looking to boost your confidence in numeracy in your home or work life, the Torfaen Multiply team is here to help. 

This project is funded through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
