LEARNERS young and old kept it in the family during a week of educational events.

Greenwich's Family Learning Week, which ran from October 8 to October 16, aimed to encourage families to join together to learn new skills.

The week featured more than 20 events, where people could pick up tips on everything from cooking to massage.

There was also the chance to learn more about Indian culture at a Bollywood music and storytelling class at Plumstead Manor School, Old Mill Road, Plumstead.

Greenwich member for lifelong learning Councillor Angela Cornforth said: "Learning is fun, it takes place everywhere and can be enjoyed by everyone, whatever their age.

"Research shows parents, grandparents and carers are the most important factor in helping children do well."
