Our member magazine has undergone a makeover with a fresh new look - and name. We hope you like it.
The u3a matters magazine is published five times a year and posted direct to members’ homes in an environmentally friendly paper wrapper. It is packed with stories about members and u3a activities, plus celebrity interviews and features on technology, recipes, travel, competitions, and a lively and popular letters section.
How to receive u3a matters
The u3a matters magazine is available to any u3a member. To receive your copy please contact your local u3a committee so that they can add your contact details to the u3a matters database.

Magazine data submission portal
To upload u3a magazine subscriber data for your u3a, you need to use the Magazine data submission portal (MAMS).
Access to the Magazine data submission portal is restricted to pre-registered users.
The contact for your u3a will be sent a reminder 2 weeks before the submission deadline. We appreciate your support in submitting the data for your u3a as early as possible - so that we have time to help answer any queries.
The window to update the data for your u3a is as follows:
April issue - 24 February to 10 March
June issue - 28 April to 12 May
September issue - 28 July to 11 August
November issue - 29 Sept to 13 October
Data can be submitted earlier than the submission window. You only need to make a new submission if the data has changed - the last submission will be saved to the MAMS system.
