Broughty Ferry Education and Recreation Association Grant Approved

At the meeting of the Policy and Resources Committee last night, Councillors approved a grant of £2850 to Broughty Ferry Education and Recreation Association (BERA) who organise the annual programme of evening classes in The Ferry. The BERA committee, all volunteers, have been organising these classes for over 30 years. 

The investment of the grant and support to BERA from the Adult Learning staff of the Council is much appreciated by BERA and I think is a good investment. Last year BERA provided over 1500 places in their classes in a wide variety of subjects and what's more paid more than twice the value of this grant back to the Council in rental payments for the use of school premises for their classes.


BERA's new programme of classes is already underway for the Autumn term at Grove Academy and Forthill Primary School. If you want to find out if there is a still a place in one of their classes email BERA info@beradundee.org.uk and refer to the details on their website www.beradundee.org.uk
