Groups
IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT GROUPS
The committee is pleased that we are now able to re-open some groups, whilst staying within the Government’s guidelines. However some groups do have to stay shut as the priority of the committee is to ensure that everyone stays safe and healthy.
Please do see our page which lists the groups which are operating, either as an outdoor group, on Zoom, or using WhatsApp.
As a member of East Medway U3A you are welcome to join as many Interest Groups as you like, subject to space. Contact details of all Group Co-ordinators are sent with your monthly newsletter. Just contact the Group Co-ordinator to join a group or if you have any queries.
U3A groups are based on self-help; there are no "teachers" and no formal syllabus. All of the members are interested in the subject and share information and skills with each other.
Have a look at the list of groups and see if there is one or more for you.
There is also a list of online groups that are open to members.
