I just had a look at the Open University website and there are some fantastic courses, didn't dfdn know you could do a free course on quantum physics!. There's even a disability and inclusion in the workplace one which I like the look of too which might be handy for when I do my internship in September. I've done a course but through a different website when I was in college during creative media my tutor wanted me to do a scriptwriting and development course.

I remember having a look at these during lockdown (I think I ended up doing one or two) but I might have to see what courses are available now and if any take my fancy
