The University of the Third Age is a brilliant concept - a national organisation aimed at active retired (or semi-retired) people who wish to develop new interests, or pursue current activities, with like-minded folk. Local groups work to a loosely-defined national concept to establish their own informal activity sections. These can cover anything their members desire: informal education, walking, discussion, armchair travel, sport, reading, drama, bridge - the list is endless. The only requirements are sufficient people with a similar interest, and someone to act as organiser and/or instructor for that subject. Groups plan their own schedules of meetings to pursue that interest. No qualifications are required, and none are given. There is no attendance requirement and no tutor fees - interest groups just share any expenses they incur. It's a great way to keep body and mind active, as we travel through this 'third age' of our lives!

What is U3A?

The University of the Third Age is a brilliant concept - a national organisation aimed at active retired (or semi-retired) people who wish to develop new interests, or pursue current activities, with like-minded folk.

The only requirements are sufficient people with a similar interest, and someone to act as organiser and/or instructor for that subject. Groups plan their own schedules of meetings to pursue that interest.
