Outings
Wheathampstead u3a Outings 2024
All u3a members are welcome to spend an interesting day out on one of our outings, and we are having eight in 2024.
We try to keep to a journey of no more than one and a half hours, in a luxury coach, and all are priced at between £45 and £55.
Everyone gets an email with details of the outing, two months before the date. You then apply for a place and get a request for money one month before the event.

| Tue 25 June | Hever in Bloom: Garden Tour and lunch at the beautiful Heaver Castle |
