Groups
DURING THE LOCKDOWN U3A GROUPS MEET VIRTUALLY ONLY
Our Interest Groups are listed below in alphabetical order. Click on a Group name for more information. Do get in touch with any Group that arouses your interest. Currently quite a few groups meet virtually and are having great fun doing it, but some are back to face to face meetings.
You are welcome to attend two u3a sessions without commitment. If you would like to know if there are any Groups about to start up, see our General News page.
Members who are thinking of starting a Group should read How to set up a new U3A Group. If a group requires new or replacement equipment follow the guidance which can be found at Equipment for Groups.
For Potential New Members: See Benefits of Buxton U3A Membership
