Warm welcome at the U3A

-

HI EVERYONE, I can’t believe we are already in February.

For those of you who are retired or living alone, please don’t be lonely.

Have you thought of a new hobby or meet new friends, go on days out or even short holidays.

Why not consider joining the U3A, there are many groups all over the country and they all offer friendship and all of the above.

Currently Loughborou­gh U3A have approximat­ely 170 members, new members are always very welcome.

There are 31 groups ranging from photograph­y, crafts, garden visits, music appreciati­on, Shakespear­e, meditation, Lunch on Sunday and many more.

We have a monthly meeting with a speaker, cup of coffee/tea and biscuits plus informatio­n on up and coming trips, days out etc.

We also have a coffee morning every eight weeks with tea / coffee and home made cakes, a great morning to get to know other members and group leaders are often there.

January’s speaker was Rose. Topic Joyce Grenfell OBE who was an actress and comedian. Rose was an excellent speaker knowledgea­ble and funny, there was a lot of head nodding and laughter as she shared some of the stories.

The next meeting is on February 19, the speaker is Wendy Coley, topic Medical Detection Dogs.

The meetings are held the third Wednesday of the month 2pm at: United Reformed Church, Frederick Street, Loughborou­gh, LE11 3BH.
