Groups

Groups are run on a regular weekly or monthly basis. They may take place in members homes or local halls. Fees for hiring halls and other expenses are shared by members of the group and costs are kept to a minimum as much as possible. Several of the local u3a's are linked and we have reciprocal arrangements whereby members can join groups run by Taw, Torridge and Braunton for example.

If you have a query about any group or you are interested in forming a new group, please contact our Group Coordinator - Laurence.

We also take part in coach trips to country houses, stately homes and gardens, and occasional special interest events. Details of these can be found on this or the What's On page.

You can enquire about joining a group by contacting the group leader.  Just click on the group for an email link.

IDEA:  If you have a particular skill or interest and cannot see it listed below you could always start your own group!  It is not as scary as it sounds as there will be support and guidance throughout.  In the foist instance discuss your idea with the Group Coordinator - Laurence or indeed with any Committee Member would also be delighted to help.
