Abstract	People working in the field of education know well the positive effects adult and community learning can have on mental health and wellbeing. Participating in adult and community learning can help to widen social networks and improve life and employment chances; it makes for better general health; and can strengthen the learner's self-confidence, making them feel happier and less isolated. This article describes an adult and community learning programme for people with depression and anxiety that demonstrates both the positive impact of learning on mental health and well-being and the need for greater collaboration between health and education.
