Meetings are usually the first and third Mondays of the month at 10am, no meetings 1 April 2024 and in August. Through the Spring and Summer we visit nature reserves, trips organised by one of the members. For 2024 there is an additional charge of £15.00 to pay for guides and room hire etc.
Advance notice: we have a 34 seater coach booked for Mon Oct 7 to take us to Oxford, estimated cost £19.00pp. To fill the coach an invitation to other U3a members will be issued closer to the date.
