Abstract	To maximise people's chances to reach their potential and so build a more cohesive and just society, one must acknowledge that learning is not only for the young; one must know that it's a lifelong activity. And one must also value and support the role that informal learning plays in transferring skills and knowledge. The author launched a review which has now reached the consultative stage, to ensure that the way learning is provided is effective, reaching the most marginalised members of the society. The review of informal adult and community learning is not just about delivering equity and value for money. It is also about demonstrating the contribution informal learning can make to a range of government objectives. The review provides a once-in-a-generation opportunity for those who believe in the life-long importance of learning to come together, share their knowledge and understanding of what works, and help shape a system where the benefits of learning are spread both fairly and widely.
