Groups
WELCOME to the Groups page.
Our Groups
Within our u3a we have over 40 special interest groups that come together on a regular basis to learn, laugh and live experiences. Each group shares its skills and knowledge within the group.
All members are welcome to join an interest group. Some groups become very popular and therefore once a group becomes full we work together to start another so please put your name down on the waiting list if your chosen group is full!
Have you considered becoming a Group Coordinator?
You may have a special skill you could share, or an interest in a particular subject and would like to explore it with others with the same interest.
Our Interest Groups Co-ordinator Linda will look for other interested members and help you to set up and organize a new group. All our groups are run by members who have volunteered and who have a lot of fun doing so, so don’t hold back!
We are also keen to find additional Group Coordinators for Groups shown as oversubscribed (marked with a grey background).
Group Options
Click the Group name in the Group List below for more information or see the Programme Leaflet 2022 for a schedule of meetings each month. To join a group click the blue pigeon “Send a Message” button in the top right hand corner of the page.
