Welcome to the Website of Burton Joyce and District u3a

I’m Alan Comerie, the current Chairman. If you have any queries after browsing our website, please call me on 0300 102 1383.

The u3a is a friendly network of over 1,000 groups across the UK, created for people who are no longer working full-time to meet up, socialize, and learn just for the fun of it. It’s all run by volunteers, and we can only offer as much as our members are willing to get involved – but you might be surprised by just how much that is!

Why not pop by one of our monthly speaker meetings? We meet at Burton Joyce Village Hall on the second Tuesday of each month. There’s no charge, and you’re welcome to come along for two visits without any obligation. You’ll find details of upcoming meetings here: :-  Meetings, Outings, Events – Burton Joyce U3A (bju3a.co.uk)

The best part about u3a is that you can be as involved as you like – as little or as much as suits you. That said, the more you join in, the more you’ll get out of it! We’ve got over 60 interest groups, from Aerobics to Wine Tasting (as shown in the photo!), so there’s bound to be something that catches your eye. And if you’ve got an idea for something new, it’s easy to start your own group too!

Finding your way around the site:

• If you’re on a computer, use the headers at the top of the page.

Still have questions? Don’t hesitate to get in touch by phone or email – we’re happy to help. Our phone number is 0300 102 1383 (calls are usually free to this number), or you can email me at chair1@bju3a.co.uk

Feel free to join one of our monthly meetings or reach out to a Group Coordinator if there’s a particular group you’re curious about. You can also enjoy a couple of taster sessions to see if we’re the right fit for you.

To find out more about becoming a member, click on the Join Us header at the top of the screen. There, you’ll see all the details, including a membership form and the cost – just £18 for a full year (or £16.50 each if two people in the same household join).

We look forward to meeting you!
