U3A online and Facebook group

The national U3A, or Third Age Trust, has built partnerships with a number of organisations to offer online events, tutorials and visits on a wide range of subjects.  For example, some members of our Ukulele group will be joining the u3a Ukulele Jam in February. 
Why not check out what's available at www.u3a.org.uk/events

There's also a Facebook group for U3A members only which always has some really interesting posts - from lovely photos of members' favourite places to puzzles, jokes, stories and discussion threads. The discussions range from what U3As are doing during lockdown to topical national and international issues.  If you use Facebook, have a look at u3a: Keeping in Touch

It is planned that the postponed AGM for 2020 will take place via Zoom towards the end of March 2021.  The 2021 AGM will take place in May, again via Zoom.

A Covid-19 Risk Assessment form for indoor activity groups can be found in the Forms section of the Members Area.
Further clarification on behalf of the Executive Committee was added on 4 September 2020.

You will also find the Nature Group's Health & Safety Policy and Risk Assessment which can be used as a template by outdoor activity groups.

Monthly Meetings

Because of Covid-19 restrictions, monthly meetings are suspended until further notice.

Under normal circumstances, Monthly Meetings for members of NDA U3A are held on the last Thursday of the month at 2.30pm in the Aurora Aquatic and Leisure Complex, Bangor.

At these meetings members can hear the latest news about what's happening in their U3A, be enlightened and entertained by guest speakers, and have a chat with other members.  There is no charge for attendance.

If any member has been ill recently or needs someone with them, a carer or helper is very welcome to come along to these meetings.

Please note that there are no Monthly Meetings in July, August and December.
