In this episode, we're joined by Patricia Kennedy Quish, or Trish, whose work as an Adult Educator, Adult Literacy Co-ordinator, Prison Educator, and VTOS Co-ordinator has impacted the lives of countless learners.
Trish discusses the power of education to create opportunities for those who may have experienced barriers to learning. Throughout the conversation, she shares insights from adult literacy programmes, VTOS and her personal life, highlighting the importance of meeting learners where they are, and recognising the strengths they bring with them.
Expect to learn about the role of second-chance education, the impact of literacy on confidence and participation, and why hope, dignity, and belonging are central to effective educational practice.
We really enjoyed this conversation with Trish and gaining insight into how education can transform lives, communities, and futures.
