About UsAbout Wells U3A
How We Study
Members with similar interests meet in small groups during the day at weekly, fortnightly or monthly intervals, either in members’ homes or some other suitable venue.
Study groups are relaxed and non-competitive and can create new friendships. Requests for new groups are always welcome. If a group is full, another can be formed.
There is a social programme of monthly meetings and separate groups take members to the theatre, around the world from your armchair, for strolls around Wells, and to gardens in Somerset.
The Third Age Trust, our national body, has an extensive library of multi-media resource material available to any U3A member.
The Third Age Trust organise summer schools and study days throughout the country on a huge variety of subjects.
Monthly Talks
Open to all members. These are held at Wells Museum.
Talks start at 11.00 am preceded by coffee from 10.15 am to 10.45 am.
The inclusive cost is £2.50.
There are no talks in July, August and December.
Drop In Coffee Mornings
Do come and join us on a Friday at Beah’s in Union Street, between 10.30 and 11.30 am.
If you are new to U3A it is a good place to meet people and to hear about different activities or just to chat with friends.
Social Events
Every year we have a Quiz, a Summer Social, a Classical Music Weekend, a Harvest Supper and a Christmas Lunch. There are other one-off trips to places of interest. Details of these and all our group activities appear in our own Newsletter, or on the monthly meeting noticeboard.
