Penelope: City Lit provides inspiration and substance in my life
Discover how City Lit courses provide inspiration and substance in Penelope’s retirement and her general view of City Lit. Having taken over 15 courses over a number of years, City Lit plays an enormous role in her daily life.

‘It’s huge fun; I discovered stuff. It really does sound cheesy but I thought that life would have nothing new to offer, and it so has. I love coming here, and I think I love it because you can meet anybody here and everybody is here, all sorts of people. It’s such a humane, friendly place.’
