Interest Groups are at the core 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 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 2025 – New Interest Group starting soon:
“The British Isles: Poetry and History
a guided tour through The Penguin Book of English Verse, from 1500 to the present.
Full details of this new group including how to contact the organiser will be published in the October 2025 Newsletter.
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 –
- Contact interestgroups@u3aburystedmunds.co.uk to discuss how we can support you in setting up your new group.
