The Mary Ward Settlement is a medium sized multi-service charity founded in 1895, focused on supporting the efforts and achievements of people in the communities it serves through adult education, access to welfare and social justice and community services. Mary Ward's work is focused on empowering people to enrich and transform their lives, in a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere. Advancing equality and diversity remains at the heart of Mary Ward's practice and policy and continues to reflect our founder's concept of 'equalisation' and original vision for adult learning which remains to open up the pleasures and opportunities afforded by education to all. Mary Ward works with Londoners to help create opportunities for them to reach their educational, social and economic potential, enabling them to learn not only practical skills but to feel part of a community.

The Settlement has three core areas of work which are spread over 3 sites, Stratford, Southwark and Holborn.
