Our Groups - By Category
Here you will find a list of our groups, arranged by category. If you would like more information about a particular group, or would like to join a group, please contact the relevant Group Leader(s).
Note that only members of a U3A can join our groups, although a non-member may be allowed to join a taster session.
Some groups may be limited in size, for example because meetings are held in members' homes. If you are interested in joining a group but your chosen group cannot take any more members, why not consider forming a new group? Advice can be obtained from the How to Form a Group page.
