JOIN A GROUP
When you join Hastings & Rother u3a you unlock entry to 60+ interest groups ranging from art appreciation to walking. Once you’ve left full-time employment it’s an opportunity to meet new people in a friendly environment as most of our groups meet in member’s homes.
Below you’ll find a groups list with days and times. However, because of data protection please refer to the printed groups list you were sent when you joined which contains convenors contact details.
If you can’t find your list, it’s no problem, just contact the Groups Co-ordinator and they will send you a copy. If a group has no vacancies it might be worthwhile to call the convenor and ask if there’s a waiting list.
PLEASE REMEMBER YOU MUST BE A FULLY PAID UP MEMBER BEFORE JOINING A GROUP. This is partly for insurance and legal reasons but also to ensure that everyone is paying a fair share to support our u3a.
GIVING BACK: BY THE MEMBERS, FOR THE MEMBERS
Our convenors act as coordinators – unofficial organisers – of their groups.
If you have a special interest or skill you’d like to explore and share, please consider becoming a convenor.
Our experienced Groups Coordinator would be pleased to guide you and lend support to get you and your group up and running. We can help you find interested members, a venue if necessary and help you get organised. Some groups use co-convenors to share and support activities. It might seem daunting at first but help is on hand for as long as you need it. Running a group is a
great way to make friends as well as a rewarding experience knowing you’re giving back to your community.
