Magnifying Glass

Educating you, enriching society

Ruskin has been transforming lives for 120 years, giving everyone the opportunity to learn and to grow, regardless of background and circumstances. Set up in 1899 as a workers’ college striving for a fairer society, today we offer university programmes, adult courses and apprenticeships with a social purpose. We are still the ground breakers and want you to be the change makers. Welcome to our story.
