Tewkesbury U3A Groups

The The Tewkesbury & District University of the Third Age has a number of interest groups covering a wide range of topics, and new groups are introduced according to members' wishes and the availability of tutors/leaders.

There is a list on this page of the groups: it will tell you which day of the week they meet, which weeks of the month, which group name, and where they meet

Please note:- Since the Summer of 2007 floods, there may be some changes of venue - please ask Betty Haynes , who can put you in touch with individual group organizers.

To find out more about any of the groups, please contact our Groups Organizer, Betty Haynes, on 01684-296264.

In addition to group meetings, there is always the monthly General Meeting [ second Monday of the month]where members can meet other members, socialize, talk to Committee members and enjoy a high quality talk.
