The Mill Arts Centre in Banbury, Oxfordshire, is launching a new six‑week dance course on 15 April 2026 for young adults with learning disabilities. The sessions are designed for people aged 16–30 to learn new skills and meet people in their community.
Classes run weekly from 5:30pm to 7:00pm starting Wednesday 15 April 2026 and are listed as a six‑session block. The cost for the full six‑week block is £51 (equivalent to £8.50 per 1.5‑hour session).
Sessions will be led by an industry professional dance artist with a support worker; The Mill’s listing makes clear that “personal care is not provided.” The classes take place in The Mill’s dance studio — note that The Mill’s accessibility information states the dance studio and other rooms above ground floor are accessed via stairs, so attendees with mobility needs should contact the venue to discuss access arrangements before booking (Box Office: 01295 279002).
The Mill and partner Anjali Dance Company describe the programme as focusing on developing dance technique, physical fitness, confidence, creativity and social skills for participants. The Mill is an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation (NPO); ACE funding supports the centre’s wider programme of community activity, though there is no public evidence that Arts Council England has directly funded this specific six‑week class.
