Downham Market & District u3a
Our u3a which was founded in 2009 is very popular, with membership of up to 250. At the moment we have over 25 learning/activity/social groups, all led voluntarily by members. Where possible these meet in members' home. For those groups requiring a larger space (e.g. Table Tennis or Singing for Pleasure) the group members share the cost of hiring a suitable hall or room. Leaders of outdoor activity groups such as Walking and Gardening keep members informed about meeting venues and outings with annual or half-yearly programmes. All learning/activity/social groups take place during the day. Some groups may organise coach trips in which case spare seats will be offered to the wider membership.
Our Annual Subscription, due at the April monthly meeting each year, is currently £15.00. New members joining after November will pay £7.50 until the April meeting. Members of other U3A’s can join as associate members for a reduced fee of £11.50.
Monthly meetings are held at Downham Town Hall. We meet at 2-00pm on the second Monday of each month, (except August), with guest speakers and refreshments. Whilst the meetings are free to members, we ask visitors to pay £2.00 which will be redeemed if they enrol. Please note that in 2023 April and May meetings have been rescheduled to third Mondays because of bank holidays.
