What is the cost of membership?
- Costs are covered by an annual subscription (currently £15).
- Our local u3a has no paid staff and is run for the benefit of members, by its members.
- The subscription includes a fee (currently £4) paid to our parent body. This covers the cost of a quarterly magazine posted to your home address, plus items such as insurance cover for u3a events.
- Attendance at talks, events and groups only incur charges to cover costs such as refreshments and venue hire.
Join an interest group
Select here to enquire about vacancies on a group before committing to membership or check the Group Description page using the buttons above. In addition to ongoing group activities we also seek to provide study days and short courses. More information here. | Many of our members, but by no means all, live in Ilkley, Otley & adjoining areas. Whilst there is no upper or lower age limit, a typical member is not in full time work. We are a volunteer-led charity, members being encouraged to help in any way they can.
We have reciprocal membership arrangements with some local u3a groups. Members of other u3a groups are welcome to join as Associate members. Select here for more information. |
Our
groups cater for a wide range of interests and ability levels. New
ones are formed all the time and we are always keen to hear new ideas for groups. Join one group or many
– it’s up to you although some popular groups have waiting lists.
