Abstract | In this paper, the author shares his perspective on the future of lifelong learning by looking back to the vision of the pioneers of adult learning, and picking out four messages that are relevant as people face their own, distinct, challenges. The author stresses the need to seize the opportunity to reinvigorate the original vision of adult learning, and puts forward five components that should be a part of any new vision. From his standpoint as Leader of Leicester City Council, the author believes lifelong learning needs to sit at the heart of the work people are doing to build prosperous, sustainable and cohesive communities. He argues that the move to make local authorities "lead accountable bodies" for informal adult learning is an opportunity not only to extend the reach of learning services to those who need them most but also to reinvigorate the founding vision of lifelong learning.
