Wells U3A was founded in 1993 and is a registered charity, no.1023275. A Committee, whose members are Trustees, deal with the administration and finance. This committee is elected from within the Wells U3A membership.

We are part of the National and International U3A Trusts. In the United Kingdom there are over 742 branches of the U3A, with a membership of around 230,000.

Membership fee for Wells U3A is £7.50 each, which entitles you to attend as many courses as you wish, provided there are vacancies.

Every member is entitled to a local newsletter produced three times a year, and a national U3A news magazine three times a year.

Wells U3A offers a programme of educational and leisure activities for retired people, but what is essential is that members should contribute their own experience, interests and enthusiasms actively, so that they learn from each other.

Educational qualifications are not required for admission and none are awarded.
