Groups

Groups are run by U3A members, who usually ask for a small contribution towards refreshments and running expenses.

Group leaders can be contacted using the link at the top of each group page

Anyone interested in starting a new group should contact our Groups Co-ordinator Meg 

Costs vary from nil or a nominal charge for refreshments to £2+ per session to cover hire of room / hall / expenses etc, where relevant.

ENGLISH HERITAGE: Free group visits are available to English Heritage sites if you book via the English Heritage website and provide your learning objectives. You would not qualify for expert-led visits.
