Bristol

Social Group, North-East Bristol

What: A social group for members in North-East Bristol to provide a forum for U3A members in and around BS16 to meet, socialise and share information about city-wide U3A activities and to promote more activity, including new groups, in the area of North-East Bristol.

When is it: First Monday of the month at 10 am till noon

Where is it: Castle Suite, Badminton Gardens, Beaufort Road, Downend BS16 6UE

We meet at 10.00 a.m. for coffee and biscuits and a very short 'business meeting'. Then we sometimes have a talk by a member - all sorts of things have been planned. There are already several groups which have started as a result of conversations about shared interests - a Saturday Lunch Club, Table Tennis (weekly at Downend Sports Centre), Opera, Showtime!, Film & Theatre, Current Affairs, Social History (listed as History, Social) and Ethics. (Take a look at the individual group pages to find out more about them.)

There is real potential for other groups being formed which only need a little more participation and action to get them started.

New members are most welcome.

For further information please see the Annual Bulletin, latest News Sheet or write via the Contacts page, or just click on 'send a message'above to contact the Convener.

Just turn up. Easy access. 2 mins to nearest bus stop. Ample parking nearby (apart from Badminton Gardens car park, which is often busy, there are car parks 100 yds either side of Badminton Gardens.)
