Interest Groups are the life blood of our u3a where the aim is helping members get together to learn something, share new experiences, and have fun.
u3a is a ‘broad church’ and open to all ideas for interest groups. Please feel you can suggest one – help and advice is readily at hand to help groups start up, email Mark, interestgroups@u3aburystedmunds.co.uk
The Group Organiser can be more than one person – it is often best if it doesn’t fall to one person, but to have a few members of the interest group help out in organising things as needed.
Subject Advisers are also on hand for many interests – click here
Remember a group doesn’t have to run for ever, it can have a finite length. Members’ choose how often they want to meet.
Update October ’24 – New Interest Groups starting soon include:
- Bridge (second group, we still need a u3a member-Bridge Director)
- Tai Chi (we are still seeking a u3a member to be an instructor for this group)
In addition, we would welcome interest for the following new groups:
- Flower arranging (a lovely distraction from the winter blues)
- Walking football/cricket (a more relaxed way to keep mobile)
If you’d like to join any of these interest groups, please email Mark, interestgroups@u3aburystedmunds.co.uk
Remember if an existing Interest Group is full, additional groups in the same subject can be started:
- in the first instance, please email the Group Organiser to be added to their waiting list, and also
