u3a members can join a wide range of online talks, workshops and courses for free with their membership!

Most of these opportunities are presented by members themselves; sharing their knowledge or skills with others across the movement. We also have a wide range of talks on offer from well-known speakers and organisations, plus in-person events at venues like the Royal Institution.

All of these events can be booked below via Eventbrite. At the time of booking, please ensure that you can attend and if you later find that you’re unable to, please cancel your place through Eventbrite to avoid others missing out unnecessarily. All events are for u3a members only.

If you are considering offering a talk or workshop please get in touch at learning@u3a.org.uk – we’d love to hear from you.

Our online events are hosted on Zoom. We have some ‘How to Guides‘ for using Zoom if you are unfamiliar with the platform. Don’t forget u3a also runs many projects, initiatives and competitions available for all members to get involved in too

Our first Monthly meeting was on January 8th and as tradition dictates was a Quiz!  Lots of you did join us and serious competition began.  Dingbats with an Animal Theme,   Whose eyes are these?  Name this building in Kingston Borough from an interesting photo(?) embarrassing how many you nearly knew but couldn’t quite name. There was close competition not to win as usual but we have crowned the winners and await their version of a quiz for next year.

P.S. many thanks to this years organisers who were a cross section of keen quizzers previously unknown to each other who provided us all with lots of fun in a very well organised event.
