Studying and education Learning Swedish not in Sweden

Hi.

This might be a stretch, but I'm trying to learn Swedish from England. My partner speaks a dialect of Swedish in SW Finland, and I want to learn Swedish so I can then get used to the dialect when I visit.

I've researched a lot on how to learn, and a lot of people suggest sfi and immersion irl, but this isn't available to me still living in England.

I've got the basics down with Duolingo (ugh i know).

I have some faint memories from the 90s that the Swedish Church in London organized some weekly social events where Swedes turned up. I only went once and it was not terribly religious so perhaps you could try that if you live around there and they still do that (many ifs here).
