Something missing? If there is a group you would be interested in, that we don't already include, why not consider starting it yourself? u3a is not about formal learning, but having fun, maybe learning something new, in a friendly environment. It's all about stepping up and participating.
If you've not been a u3a group leader before, there is plenty of help available from the committee to help you get started, find a venue to meet in, and guide you on your way.
Contact the Groups Coordinator or visit this page for more information.
