Romsey & District

Membership of other u3as

Did you know there are two u3a's in Romsey? In addition to Romsey & District there is Romsey Archway u3a. Why not become a member of both and enjoy a wider range of interest groups to join and two monthly meetings to attend.

The two u3as have agreed that, with reciprocal effect:

- where any of our groups are short of members we will, if the group wants, advertise our group to Romsey Archway members and vice versa;

- where any proposed new group has insufficient numbers to make it viable we will ask Romsey Archway to publicise the group to see if they have members who would like to join it;

- where we have similar groups, respective group leaders are encouraged to share ideas, join together for particular speaker events, hold competitions, etc.;

- if you join Romsey Archway as a 2nd u3a, whilst a member of Romsey & District, or you are a member of Archway, or any other u3a, and want to attend one or more of our groups you will need to join our u3a. In both cases you will benefit from a discount of £3.50 on the normal membership fee so that you don’t pay the national u3a (Trust) capitation twice. The combined membership fees would therefore be £21.50 and provide access to some 100 groups and two monthly meetings.
