u3a - Workshops

The Third Age Trust has developed workshops in partnership with u3a members to provide support, information and advice for all u3a members. The workshops are delivered online using Zoom by Trust volunteers who bring their experience as Trustees, u3a Chairs and Committee members.

All u3a members are welcome to attend these workshops which are informal and informative and provide a great opportunity to meet and exchange ideas and share best practice with u3a members across the UK. If you are curious to learn and would like to join us at an upcoming workshop, please book your place using the links below.

u3as, networks and regions are also able to request specific workshops, if this is something you are interested in for your Region, network or u3a, please read the information at the end of this page to find out more. Additional information and support for your u3a can also be found on the Advice and Guidance webpage.
