What is The u3a Movement?
Louth u3a is part of the UK-wide u3a movement of locally run, self-help, self-managed groups that provide a wide range of opportunities to come together to live and experience activities, learn new things and laugh and have fun whilst doing so.
Although u3a is for people no longer in full time employment, there is no lower or upper age limit.
Anyone in their third age can join a u3a – no qualifications are needed and no qualifications are gained.
It is merely an approach to lifelong learning and provides an opportunity to do things you have never tried before.
The third age can be a time of creativity and fulfillment for people who are retired or semi-retired.
All you need is interest and enthusiasm and a desire to share your knowledge or expertise with other like-minded people. Each u3a is a democratic, self funded, self managed, non profit organisation that exists to provide education, leisure and social activities for people no longer in full time employment.
With local open meetings and more than 35 interest/activity groups, there is something for everyone.
Members can also join in national on-line events.
