Positive Ageing Month 2024

“Multiply” is a new scheme to boost numeracy skills, as part of the broader UK Shared Prosperity Programme. The Department for the Economy is leading on the delivery of the Multiply programme in Northern Ireland. Numeracy is a vital skill and the £5.9m Multiply programme for Northern Ireland will boost the competence and confidence of over 3,000 adults and in turn enhance their opportunities for further training and employment. The programme aims to help transform the lives of adults across the UK who struggle with basic numeracy through a range of accredited and non-accredited initiatives. Fermanagh and Omagh Labour Market Partnership, on behalf of Fermanagh and Omagh District Council, were awarded fund- ing from the Department for the Economy to deliver a variety of numeracy themed events within the Fermanagh and Omagh District Council area before the 31 March 2025.
