WHY NOT JOIN ELGIN & DISTRICT u3a
TO
MAKE NEW FRIENDS AND TRY NEW INTERESTS?
KCRadio Broadcast about our u3a
The u3a is an organisation that encourages older people, not in full-time employment, to keep their minds active by discovering the pleasures of learning in friendly surroundings, away from the pressures of formal academic structures. It is one of the fastest growing organisations in the UK, there being more than 1000 u3as and over 400,000 members.
Elgin & District u3a offers a variety of interest groups, each led by the members themselves. These groups range from study-based subjects such as languages, science or local history to more recreational topics, including walking, sports, dance and indoor games. They meet in members’ homes or at a public venue. In the latter case, group members contribute to the room hire costs. For a nominal annual fee, members may join as many groups as they wish.
Members are spread over a wide area with at least one interest group currently meeting in Lossiemouth, Fochabers, Hopeman, Burghead, Lhanbryde, Cummingston, Dufftown and Archiestown, as well as those in Elgin itself.
General members’ meetings are held about every two months in Elgin Town Hall, usually featuring a guest speaker, refreshments and the opportunity to meet with other members, group leaders and members of the committee.
