Open events at Oxford Continuing Education

Oxford Open Doors

Walking tours and short talks for lifelong learners

As part of Oxford Open Doors, on Saturday 11 September 2021 we hosted a range of walking tours around Oxford, along with short talks on lifelong learning.

Starting at Wellington Square, walking tours included local and social history, literature, ecology – and even a ghostly walk! Short talks, taking place at Rewley House and online, discussed preparing for study and explored the wide range of courses available for adult learners at Oxford Continuing Education.
