Social Trips

There will be no trip in August, as for many of us it’s a busy month; I am hoping to arrange something mid-September.

I will let everyone who is registered on the social group know where and when as soon as its decided.

The Social Group is open to everyone in the Eastwood u3a.  If you would like to be informed first of the planned trips please let me know and I will add you to the list.

Monthly Meeting – 6th December 2023

We look forward to welcoming members and visitors to this event, which will last from 10.00 am to 12.00 noon in St Mary’s Church, Church Street, Eastwood.  There will be a speaker and refreshments will be served during the break.   It will be a good opportunity to catch up on the latest group news and meet up with other u3a members.

It would be good to invite friends/neighbours to attend so that they can find out what we are all about.
