Really Useful Group (RUG)

RUG
This is a new group for our members to offer and use your skills to help our u3a thrive. Its also for our Committee to let members know what we need. Two-way communication!

We have many small but important jobs where your your skills would be greatly appreciated if you would be willing to help out from time to time.

Example activities we might occasionally need some help with:-

  • Being a guide or Meeter & Greeter (M&G) at monthly meetings.
  • Serving refreshments at events.
  • Distributing posters or leaflets.
  • Stuffing envelopes for example - to deliver membership cards or Newsletter/Bulletins.
  • Manning a stall to recruit new members.
  • more to be added ... watch this space.

Unlike most groups, RUG will not usually have any meetings to attend, just an exchange of ideas and volunteering to help. You do not join RUG - you are all members already. Many of our jobs will be one-offs, some might be regular monthly jobs for a short while.

Our Committee Members will continue to plan, organise, and to do the BIG jobs on your behalf but your additional help is needed. U3a is a team effort with everyone helping each other! We would love to hear from you either as a volunteer or any good ideas you have. Please email or phone us at Contact Us.
