Hereford Workshop
Welcome to our website page.
Hereford Workshop has been running for over 30 years and has in recent years moved to Belmont Community Centre. We are a small group of experienced teachers who aim to provide support and tuition in a friendly, relaxed environment in a fun engaging way, providing students opportunities to develop strategies to cope with dyslexia and some other special educational needs. Tuition (term-time) is on Saturday mornings from 9am to 1pm and on Wednesdays after school from 3.30pm to 6pm. Please see our Term Dates and Fees for details.
This year, Hereford workshop has started up a parent support group whose aim is to meet from time to time for a friendly chat, organise small fundraising events and provide support for each other.

Student News
Hello! My name is Elliot and I am 15 years old. For a great proportion of those years, I have been attending the mathematics workshop provided by the HWDA. The support given by the tutors in this subject has improved my knowledge for use in my school-time lessons: the ability to discover and understand methods for solving problems is incredibly empowering. The help has also allowed me to flourish as an individual. Communicating with others and building relationships with new friends is critical to the lives of all children. I can wholeheartedly say that the HWDA has boosted my confidence and I am certain they have done the same for many other attendees. Recently, I have achieved the fantastic role of Head Boy for my High School. I have no doubt that the utmost passion from all that have aided my learning at the HWDA has enabled me to accomplish this responsibility. I would like to thank the tutors for their dedication to enhancing the understanding of children across Hereford and Worcester.
HWDA are very proud of Elliot’s achievements and would like to congratulate him on becoming Head Boy at his school. An amazing achievement and well deserved.
Hereford HWDA Workshop Challenge
Our first ever main fundraising event has been planned by our Parent Support Group. All students have skills in and outside of education. HWDA wants to recognise these achievements and is planning to sponsor each participating student on our ‘Just Giving’ page.
Our Spring fundraising Challenge has now been launched and is up and running. All the students have set themselves a challenge to complete this term, based on a hobby or interest that they are proud of. If you would like to sponsor our students please use the link above. Thank you for your valued support. Money from this event will be used for new resources at Hereford Workshop.
