Welcome to Oversights for SiteWorks: designed to provide an overview of UK u3as' activities, based on the contents of their websites. It currently holds records for 710 sites hosted at u3asite.uk plus a few independently-hosted sites which have (in whole or part) adopted the SiteWorks theme for Wordpress. It includes 17 sites for u3a organisations covering a wider geographical area than a local u3a, i.e. Wales, Scotland, six English regions and seven networks within one or more counties.
Links to all the sites can be found in the alphabetic index and the geographical area lists, but they vary in the extent to which their full content is accessible. Data is regularly collected from the individual sites and stored in a central database to support searches for groups, future events, and pictures. Requests are sent to each site via a Wordpdess API or similar tool, and will be answered provided that the polled site is set up to respond, and the requested content has been registered by the site editors in the recommended way.
Following the most recent update, the database holds records of: 25387 groups for 675 sites, 7551 future events for 532 sites, and 112544 pictures for 677 sites, spread over 38669 pages. Please visit the other pages here to discover what u3a members across the country are doing!
