About Our Groups

Our Special Interest Groups form the lifeblood of our u3a, providing members with opportunities to get together, make friends and develop new skills and interests.

Whatever your interests and enthusiasms, you are sure to find something to attract you...

...or why not try something new ? Most of our groups have spaces available, and would be happy to welcome you.

All currently active groups are listed below.

Indoor activities embrace art, arts & crafts, current affairs, dining, history, board games, languages, poetry and literature, music and quizzes.

How can I join a group?

The easiest way to join a group is to find the name of the contact person(s) of the group you are interested in - they are included in the groups list below. Click on the Group Coordinator's name and this will open an email dialogue box for you to use.

It is important to note that some of our groups have a waiting list to join owing to their popularity and logistical limitations with meeting venues. Members are encouraged to contact the respective Group Coordinator to register their interest.

The location and timing of meetings may vary from those listed here, so please always check with the Group Coordinator(s) if you are unsure.

New Groups

If you do not see a group that covers a particular interest that you have, then do feel free to propose setting up a new one.

Please contact Groups Facilitator Shelagh Murray who will be happy to help and advise you.
