Special Study Groups
Stevenage u3a has a wide variety of Study/Special Interest Groups. Groups may meet monthly, fortnightly or weekly, depending on the subject. Group meetings take place in the Group Leaders' homes, or local public venues either am or pm.
We welcome offers from anyone prepared to lead a study/special interest group, or even start up a second group for those that are full. It is not necessary for you to have experience in the area you wish to study, just enthusiasm!. Help and advice is available please contact the group contact through the contact button on the tool bar.
Stevenage holds a weekly Thursday Afternoon Open Meeting (TOM) usually 2-4 pm in the Arts Centre, Roaring Meg, Stevenage. This is where prospective members can find out details of our activities.
