u3a - Strategy and Governance

Our Vision

Our Vision is to make lifelong learning, through the experience of u3a, a reality for all not in full time employment.

Strategic Aims for the u3a movement

The identification of these four Strategic Aims was shaped by the findings of the u3a Movement's post-pandemic 2021 Consultation.

To promote a u3a collective identity (Single u3a)
To maximise the benefits of u3a membership to current members and to attract the next generation (Next Gen)
To advance an exciting u3a learning experience (Enjoy)
To collaborate with like minded organisations at all levels of the movement (Emerge and Collaborate)

For further insight into the process, we encourage you to view the presentation delivered by our Vice Chair, Allan Walmsley, in the video below.
