If you want to spend time with other members who share your interests or skills and you cannot find such a Group or the Groups you want to join have a waiting list, why not start a new Group?
Our Group Leaders are the beating heart of our u3a, and without new Group Leaders our u3a cannot evolve and grow.
Group Leaders are simply members who find other like-minded members to meet up with and enjoy playing, learning or exploring together. You do not have to be an expert , but of course experts are welcome too.
Do you need any qualifications? No! But enthusiasm will do nicely.
It is easy to set up a new Group. Just follow the how-to steps below and you will get all the help you need from our Cluster Support team.
Our ±156 active Groups have been divided into 5 Clusters so that you can easily get advice from experienced Group Leaders:
- Art and Specialist
- Books and Music
- Games, Science and Discussion
- Active and Sports
- Languages and Social
HOW TO START A NEW GROUP
The process is simple - a few decisions to make and one person to contact
- Decide on a name for your Group.
- What is your group going to do/learn/discuss?
- Are you going to learn something new together with the members of your Group, or are you going to share your own knowledge and interest?
- Is the size of your Group important to you?
- Do you want to meet in a private home or in a larger venue?
- How often do you want to meet?
- Are there any monies involved, for example providing refreshments or hiring a venu .
THATS IT.....
