The u3a radio podcast, set up in 2020, showcases the amazing things happening across the movement. It’s created by a team of u3a members who all have radio experience and features interviews with members, interest group leaders, Trustees, national volunteers and Subject Advisers.
We’ve dedicated the whole programme to everything around the u3a Summer Festival which many of you will have attended in July. Our roving reporter, Maggie Dee, travelled from Warminster to York to find out what the festival is all about - from interviewing Johnny Ball who opened the event, to a lady who plays in a steel band and even a builder who switched his career to shoe design! All organised and run by u3a volunteers - what an achievement! If you would like to share your story with the u3a Radio Podcast, get in touch by emailing
