About Us
The Benfleet u3a is an independent charity registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales, No. 1160541.
We operate to our own Constitution, which sets out the rules and mechanisms by which this u3a is run. This constitution is updated from time to time as circumstances require and must be approved by Members. Whilst independent we do take advice and guidance from the National u3a on this and other matters to ensure we stay within the law regarding our charitable status.
The Benfleet u3a is managed by a Committee, each being a Trustee of the organisation. These posts have a specified duration and require re-election or election, by Benfleet u3a Members, of a new committee member at our Annual General Meeting. Any updates or requirements are briefed to members at our Monthly General Member Meetings, in our quarterly Bulletins and/or by specific email/post as required.
The details below provide headings and links for members to explore and find details of how our u3a operates, who to contact and access to bulletins and useful information to help our members. If you think something is missing that could be useful to our membership please contact Alan Aldridge at Webmaster email contact link.
