HOW DO I KNOW WHICH GROUPS HAVE VACANCIES?

The current status is shown against each Group listed below. Active status on this page means the group has vacancies. You can use the Waiting List button along the top of any page to register your interest in a group that is currently shown as Full or Waiting List Only. If there is sufficient interest we will try to set up an extra group.

HOW DO I JOIN A GROUP OR FIND OUT MORE ABOUT IT?

Search the A-Z list below or click on a blue button to sort the groups into different listings. Click on a Group to see the full details on its own page, where you will also find a link to send a message to the Group Leader.

CAN’T FIND WHAT YOU WANT, OR LIKE TO SET UP A NEW GROUP?

Keep an eye on your newsletters as we regularly advertise for expressions of interest from members for new interest groups and activities we are helping to launch. If you have an idea for a group or taster session to gauge interest, or would like to start up a new group you will be given our full support and guidance, including access to a national Subject Expert if relevant. However, you don’t need to be a subject expert, just have an enthusiasm to share your interest with others. Contact Admin and Group Support Enquiries.

Due to a reciprocal agreement you may also attend groups offered by Colchester u3a, where there are vacancies - visit Colchester u3a Groups.
