Membership Information

Annual membership of Doncaster u3a (Du3a) provides access to • eleven monthly meetings • unlimited interest groups** • special events • six newsletters*** compiled by our own members • five issues of ‘Third Age Matters’ magazine delivered to members' homes.

The membership year for Doncaster u3a runs from APRIL - MARCH.

** The subscription allows members to attend, but not always without further cost, as many of the Du3a group sessions as they have time for. Additional fees may be due for some groups to cover costs such as room hire and refreshments. These are always kept to a minimum.

*** The Du3a Newsletter is either emailed directly to members or a hard copy is available for collection at the monthly meeting. There is an additional fee for members who wish their newsletters to be delivered by post (see below).

MEMBERSHIP FEES FOR 2024/25

Subs are due by 1st April 2024.
• The cost is £12 per member, £20 joint membership (two people sharing a single address).
• An additional £6 will enable members to receive the 6 published newsletters by post.
• The cost for Associate membership (for those already belonging to another U3A) is £8.

Cheques are preferable though not essential. You may also pay by bank transfer. If you wish to pay your subscription by post, for details of the address, please contact the Membership Secretary by clicking on Membership Enquiries on the CONTACT page. If you renew your membership by post please remember to enclose a STAMPED ADDRESSED ENVELOPE for the return of your receipt.

  • GIFT AID

If you are a taxpayer and would like us to reclaim tax from the Government on your subscription as a Gift Aid donation please indicate this on your membership form.
Important Note: Please contact the Treasurer as soon as possible if you are no longer a tax-payer as the Inland Revenue will seek to claim any Gift Aid overpaid to the DU3A directly from you and not from the Du3a.

NEW MEMBERS

If you would like to try us out, come along to one of our General Meetings on the third Monday of the month. You will be welcomed as a visitor and will be able to ‘try out' some of our groups for a short time. After that, should you wish to continue to attend meetings and groups, you will be expected to join the Doncaster u3a. Please contact the Membership Secretary by clicking on Membership Enquiries on the CONTACT page.

If you are already a member of another U3A please contact the Membership Secretary regarding subscription fees.
