This report presents results from extensive fieldwork carried
out by the Wider Benefits of Learning research team. It
presents an original analytical framework developed
specifically for this study, combined with empirical results
from 140 in-depth biographical interviews in three different
areas of England. The interviews explore the way learning
affects people’s health and well-being; their family lives;
and their engagement in civic activity. The report addresses
these effects at both an individual and collective level. It
concludes with a set of significant policy implications.
