What are Interest Groups

This is where members with similar interests join together to form common interest groups to share their knowledge, skills and experience. Members are encouraged to contribute in an informal atmosphere. They may be a leader in an interest group one day, and a student or participant in another group the next.

They may have expertise from their working lives, out-of-work activity or an interesting hobby that they are willing to share with others.

As well as academic subjects, groups may want to develop and share practical skills, interests in social projects, cultural activities or leisure pursuits.

Pace and content of studies depend entirely on the individuals making up the interest group and you should participate in order to gain the most from them.

There are varied interest or study groups in Warsop & District U3A, helping people to join-in with continuing learning in academic subjects, social activities and hobbies with friendly, like-minded people. Anyone interested in finding out more about these groups can contact the Group Leaders via the email facility on the Contact page.

New Group Suggestions.

There is a new interest group starting this month, Games and Hobbies Social Group. This will be a flexible group of an afternoon where we can meet together to play card games or board games, some people may prefer to knit or crochet and chat and others may simply like to come for a drink and chat. I would particularly invite new members to join us for this social group where they can meet informally with others (similar to the Mingletons we have had previously). This month we will be meeting on Friday 22nd November at 2.00pm to 4.00pm in the function room at The Plough, Warsop. The only cost will be £1.00 for a tea or coffee or a drink purchased at the bar. At the meeting we will discuss what day of the month to meet in future. Please bring with you any cards or games you have, so we will have a choice of which to use.
I welcome any suggestions you may have to start any new interest group. Ann
