New group starting: The Silver Cyclists. Please see the Groups page for further information.
The December 'Christmas Get together' was amazing. We were entertained by GROW FLORAL (RAILWAY ROAD, URMSTON), who entertained us with a beautiful Christmas Wreath demonstration. This was followed by a Christmas Quiz and mince pies.
We had an information table at Flixton Carnival and we were very glad it didn't rain!!! We were approached by a few people who were interested in the our U3A. All are welcome.
Davyhulme U3A Committee opportunity:
We are a very friendly and supportive Committee and meet every two months for a short discussion meeting to plan for the future.
You are welcome to come along to our Committee meetings to see what goes on. Do contact any of the Committee members if you wish to do this.
At the present time a few roles are becoming vacant as people move onto pastures new. The current vacancies & their responsibilities are outlined here:-
