This week 12 years ago a group of twelve Adult Education lecturers and their students from the Manchester University launched MANCENT as an independent adult education cooperative. 12 years of a lot of fun, lots of learning and teaching and learning about teaching, some pretty good crises (thanks 2008 and 2020) and lot of good experiences and we are still here and still enjoying what we doing. Thanks to all of you who helped to make this such a success. Here is to the next 12 years!
