All our groups are run by members who have volunteered to take on the role of leader or joint leader. Groups are formed when a number of people share a similar interest or wish to learn a new skill or develop a new interest. Some groups are very popular and may be full, but don’t give up. Contact one of our Joint Group Co-ordinators who will try to get a new group started.
Most groups operate from members’ homes and are free (though we do suggest 50p donation for tea and a biscuit). Some groups, such as Film Group or Tai Chi take place in a hall and there will be a small fee to join these groups to cover the cost of the venue. We also jointly run some groups with neighbouring u3a’s.
Members sometimes have a skillset or particular knowledge they would like to share with others but don’t know how to do this. Don’t worry, our Joint Group Co-ordinators will guide you through the steps in setting up a new group.
