U3a North Lindsey - Canasta

Interest groups are the backbone of the U3A. Groups are formed by like-minded members who wish to promote interest and learning in subjects new and old. Most groups are of a self-help nature where knowledge and interest is shared with the emphasis on pleasure. No qualifications needed or given - merely active participation and enthusiasm!

Group Leaders take on the responsibility for operation and organisation - not a difficult task, this merely involves setting dates and times, organising a venue and dealing with any fees/room hire costs incurred.

Group Leaders may or may not have expertise in the subject. Some groups may have more than one Leader, some members share the responsibility and in other groups, the leadership may pass from one member to another. Anyone can start a group so if you have a skill or interest you are willing to share, then you will be welcome to create a new group. The key is enjoyment and members may belong to as many groups as they wish.

Groups may have several different venues - some meet regularly at Scawby Village Hall, some at local pubs and many are at the homes of members. Unless it is stated otherwise, Interest Group meetings are held once a month.

Please note that only full paid-up members of the U3A may join the Interest Groups.
