Do you want to learn more about something and are prepared to work with others to do so?
It is all about sharing learning experiences. Northampton u3a, like other u3as, is a learning cooperative which draws upon the knowledge, experience and skills of its own members to organise and provide interest groups in accordance with the wishes of the membership. The teachers learn and the learners teach.

See Prospective New Groups where help is specially requested. You don't have to be an expert, only interested and willing to help. Lots of guidance and help is available to assist Group Leaders.

Please contact Jane to offer assistance or to suggest a new group.

It is essential that members attending Groups are safe when participating in u3a activities. To assist Group leaders to take reasonable precautions to prevent accidents, the Third Age Trust have developed a simple Risk Assessment protocol to guide Group leaders to consider safety. This is available to all u3a members on the national website at https://www.u3a.org.uk/advice/u3a - Support to u3as/Risk Assessments/Risk Assessment FAQs. You need to register on the site to get access. It is recommended that Group Leaders read the overview in the FAQ section first before selecting the risk assessment form most applicable to their group.
