Contacting us:
If you would like to receive more information about the U3A, or talk to us
about joining, please do any of the following:
-
Contact our chairman, VICE-CHAIRMAN or
MEMBERSHIP SECRETARY (see committee
details below). They will be pleased to tell you more about the U3A and will
arrange to send you an information pack.
-
Come along as a visitor to one of
our monthly general meetings, most of which are held at Chard Guildhall at 2pm
on the third Monday of each month (except August when there is no meeting, and
at Christmas and some other times when we hold a lunch gathering instead). You will
be given a warm welcome and members of the committee will be pleased to talk to
you. Details of the speakers at monthly meetings are given in our regular
newsletter and we also usually publicise them in the Chard & Ilminster News. (See also 'News &
Events')
-
Talk to the group LEADER of the group or
groups that you are interested in joining (click on 'Groups' option above). You
are most welcome to attend two group meetings as a visitor before deciding
whether to join.

www.u3A.org.uk.
As well as giving more details of the U3A generally, the
site also provides a complete list of U3As nationwide.
