Helston & District

Groups

Here is a list of the groups we run in Helston & District u3a. Most groups meet at least monthly but some meet more often. Smaller groups usually meet in people's homes, larger groups may meet in local halls which need to be hired and therefore there will be a small charge to cover this. 

All groups are led by members with the relevant knowledge, experience and/or enthusiasm for the subject. Please click a group name in the table below for more information on any particular group.

Details of group contacts are available once you become a member and up-dated groups list is published with the January and July Newsletter. Look out for additional details of group activities in the monthly newsletter.

If you don't find what you're looking for on the list, then why not consider starting a group yourself? For information about what is involved in being a Group Leader please go to contacts page and click on Groups Co-ordinator.
