The University of the Third Age is a self-help organisation for people no longer in full time employment providing educational, creative and leisure opportunities in a friendly environment.  It consists of local U3As all over the UK, which are charities in their own right and are run entirely by volunteers.  Local U3As are learning cooperatives which draw upon the knowledge, experience and skills of their own members to organise and provide interest groups in accordance with the wishes of the membership.   The teachers learn and the learners teach. Between them U3As offer the chance to study over 300 different subjects in such fields as art, languages, music, history, life sciences, philosophy, computing, crafts, photography and walking.


If you have any queries, please contact Chairman John Cookson at john.cookson@virgin.net

We are looking for some additional helpers - in particular, we need someone to handle Communications and Business Secretarial duties.

Also a Web Site Manager.

We are always interested in the formation of new Interest Groups and we have lists of material available from the Third Age Trust resource centre, to help group leaders or anyone thinking of setting up a new group.
Please contact us at the above email address or at the monthly general meeting - see 'Speaker Programme' for dates!
