Interest Groups
Winchester u3a has a wide range of Interest Groups. A comprehensive list of groups and related information can be found on the Groups page.
Each group has a group leader who should be contacted in the first instance if you would like to join a group. The group leaders co-ordinate the activities of their group but all group members are encouraged to share in a joint process of learning.
Many groups meet in members’ homes and so this limits the possible size of the group. If a group is full, the group leader will keep a waiting list.
If you cannot find a group for your particular interest, we will try to help you form a new group. Many new groups have been formed in this way, and details can be found under Proposed Groups. Guidelines are available through this link for anyone wishing to start a new group.
The Groups Secretary can be contacted if you have any further queries or any difficulties in joining groups, and will do their best to help you.
In addition to the Group activities there is a Monthly Meeting at which typically an external speaker gives a talk on the second Tuesday of the month, held at Littleton Memorial Hall.
The broad categories into which the groups fall are described below. Occasionally there are groups which meet for a limited period of time, perhaps for six months, on a more specific topic of interest. These groups are advertised on the website and in our Newsletter.
