I'm wanting too in my spare time learn more about excel in terms of formulas and functionality, also wanting to learn more about macros and Visual Basic coding. 
 
Is anyone aware of any free online training or websites which provide guides on this type of thing?

Excel is a very useful skill to have, but I'm not sure if VBA (VB within Excel) is a particularly sought after skill outside a handful of industries.  Something to consider.

I read a couple of books on VBA programming, might have the PDF's I can send through. In all honesty though, unless you're using it regularly/everyday you'll forget it pretty quickly.

Are you wanting to learn about VBA for the purpose of learning about macro writing or are you wanting to learn it for general programming purposes? If it's the latter, avoid it like the plague! VBA is shite!  
 
Saying that, Stack Overflow is a really good place to go when you've got programming problems. Have a search on there because loads of stuff has been covered
