U3A South Coast and Coronavirus 'Covid 19'

Over the past year, COVID has brought difficult times, both socially and economically for many. Here at U3A South Coast we have been following the health directives throughout that time and have been variably, open, closed, partially open, closed again and now as the year winds up, mostly open again, although all groups are on a brief holiday break.

Always though, we’ve managed to keep ourselves healthy and safe. Many of our groups have stayed in touch in various ways and I applaud their ingenuity in keeping communications open.  As the year closes, we look forward to a better 2021 and will start the ball rolling on January 12th with sign-on/re-enrolment day.

​

Kind regards to everyone and best wishes for the coming year.

Welcome to U3A South Coast website 

​

We are always pleased to greet new faces, and, with a membership of around 400, our program offers you many choices from the current 33 small and large groups that meet monthly, or more frequently.

​

New courses or groups are an ongoing factor, so if you can’t find what you want and have a little knowledge or big enthusiasm, get in touch. U3A is a organisation by members for members, so all possibilities are on the table. Our Program Committee welcome your ideas and are keen to talk about possibilities at any stage. Send an email via our 'contact us' page of this website.

As well as the groups, we offer occasional films and regular afternoon presentations given by a variety of speakers on a diversity of subjects, most of which are likely to appeal to our third age audiences and interests.

​

Given our philosophy of encouraging lifelong learning, our U3A aims to provide a safe, stimulating and social environment for brains that like to be active alongside like-minded folk.  And of course, there are no pre-entry requirements or exams !
