Cheswick Green & District

Welcome to Cheswick Green & District U3A

U3A is a learning cooperative for older people.

The u3a is for people who want to keep active in mind and body, enjoy socialising, and are no longer in full time employment.

u3a Members also benefit from being able to join any of the growing number of Interest Groups which cover a wide variety of subjects. Some members join the u3a just to be able to participate in our friendly Groups led by enthusiastic leaders.

Cheswick Green & District U3A was established in October 2012 and has rapidly grown to a membership of over 200.

There are more than 30 interest groups which meet regularly. These are organised by the u3a members themselves and any member whose interest is not catered for is encouraged to start a new group.

We have monthly meetings at 2.00pm on the third Thursday with speakers and a chance to chat over refreshments.

If you wish to join our u3a please contact contact jacky.jnolan@gmail.com. Membership will be reviewed periodically.

Your membership fee of only £15 per annum includes the following benefits:

  • Monthly meetings at Cheswick Green Village Hall with speakers and tea and biscuits,
  • u3a Public Liability insurance (not personal accident) whilst on any u3a activity including all u3a interest groups, and advice on u3a legal helpline 03447701040
  • Local Cheswick Green & District quarterly newsletters.
  • Access to u3a online courses (you’ll be amazed what you can study without leaving home),
  • Help for interest groups from the National u3a Resource centre.

It does not include: Interest group activities which must all be self funding but are only open to u3a members.
