Almost £1.7 million will be awarded to 16 successful projects in Glasgow offering support to adults needing help with arithmetic and maths skills across the city.
Three local colleges - Glasgow Clyde, City of Glasgow and Glasgow Kelvin College - as well as the 16 projects will benefit from a share of the funding which is being awarded through Multiply, a UK government programme for numeracy, with £1.2 million left over.
The colleges, in partnership with Glasgow Life, will offer the numeracy support on campus as well as within community settings including Castlemilk Youth Project and Fuse Youth Cafe.
