GENERAL TALKS
Here you will find details of our talks, which are usually held on the second Monday of each month at 14:00 (for a 14.15 start) in the Marchesi Centre, Windermere. The programme for each meeting is a talk by an invited speaker, followed by time for tea, biscuits and a chat with friends. Members of the public are very welcome to attend. There is a small attendance fee, currently £2, but attendance is free for our u3a members.
OTHER EVENTS
Other activities such as talks and outings organised by our groups, in particular the Local History and Natural History and Theatre/Concert groups, are listed on their individual pages. All members are invited to these.
