Groups

One of the main benefits of the u3a is the opportunity to participate in our groups and clubs. We have nearly 40 separate groups across a variety of interest/sports/activities groups – use the list on this page to find out more about each one. If you have any questions, you will find contact details for the group leader on each group's page.

Remember that you must be a u3a member in order to take part regularly in a group activity, although you are welcome to try a group at the group leaders discretion. If you're not a member yet, then join online now - it's only 10€ a year.
