Activity Groups.
Activity Groups are the essence of the u3a, and are run by members, for members. The aim is to encourage and support members in their enjoyment of existing interests and development of new interests.
Groups are informal and form around a nucleus of members with similar interests, who in turn share their experiences and help others to develop interest and involvement in the activity.
Groups are managed by their members and are generally self-funding, though training and support are available, particularly in the establishment of the Group.
If you are interested in joining a Group you should contact the relevant Group Leader. It is recommended that you contact the Group Leader before attending for the first time, as in some instances the activity may be over-subscribed. Please note that only paid-up members may take part in Group activities.
Members are encouraged to put forward ideas for new Groups, and we are keen to help facilitate demand for new activity groups, assuming we have leaders to run them. If you feel you can contribute please speak with the Group Coordinators, through the Contact page.
