Groups

Groups are the life blood of the U3A. We now have 30 groups listed below with their Group leaders. If you want to join any of the groups, please contact the leader to see if there are any places available.

The Group Co-ordinator is Estelle Sandles.

If you are interested in starting another group, or have any other queries about Groups,
please contact the Co-ordinator at interestg@ashbyu3a.co.uk

Usual Group meeting days and times.These may occasionally vary. See the Group pages for latest information.

Note that the French and Scrabble groups each usually meet fortnightly and therefore not on a particular week of the month.
The Bridge Group mostly meets every Monday in either the morning or evening but these times vary from month to month.
The Walking Group usually includes lunch afterwards, and the Industrial Heritage Group visits last most of the day.
