Multiply is a national government initiative to develop numeracy skills in adults. In Sheffield, the programme is operated by Sheffield City Council and funded by the UK Government through the South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority (SYMCA). A network of trusted providers deliver a number of numeracy workshops/courses in the community to support people to develop their numeracy skills for work, to support their households (for example their children, or with budgeting skills) or to equip them with the skills to progress onto further learning.
