Group Activities

The monthly meeting also offers the opportunity to investigate the many group activities on offer – currently over 30.

  • You may belong to as many groups as you like, or you may lead one group and learn at several others.
  • It is a good way to make friends and face the challenge of learning something new.
  • Not all groups are academic; many involve craft skills and physical activities.
  • The majority of groups are small and take place in the group leader’s home with a nominal (usually 20p) contribution towards any tea or coffee that may be provided.
  • Larger groups may meet at other venues for which a higher charge may be made.

If you have no desire to join a group you can still belong to the U3A and attend the monthly meetings.

Membership Subscription

The membership year starts on 1st September and the annual subscription for 2010/11 is a modest £14. This also pays for our local quarterly newsletter, the "West Wolds Quarterly" as well as the national "U3A News" which is mailed to members four times a year.
