The Percival Guildhouse (in Rugby) is one of only a handful of independent adult education centres still in existence. It was founded in 1925 however the history of adult education in the UK goes back much further. Thanks to a grant from the Lottery Heritage Fund we are able to start cataloguing and digitising our archive collection
The pages of the website will eventually comprises various material of historical interest extracted from the Percival Guildhouse archives. The website is still under construction - but is expected to be complete by September 2026.
We still need more help with cataloguing and scanning our archive material. If you comfortable using office software and have some spare time then please contact the Guildhouse office on 01788 542467.
