Groups
Covid-19: With the ever changing rules and guidance it is difficult to advise on what is and what is not possible for our groups at any one time. Notwithstanding this, several groups have kept in contact, supporting each other via email or phone and several have established regular meetings on line using video conferencing software – understanding though, that for others this may not be feasible. Please keep in contact with your leader/convenor (printable schedule below) and if you haven’t already done so, subscribe to the monthly U3A National Newsletter for regular updates.
