About us

Preston and District u3a is a not-for-profit charity that provides learning, social and leisure opportunities for all people who feel they have time to spare to take part or have a skill they'd like to share. Since starting in 2007, we've grown in popularity and now (2024) have over 700 members. You can browse out many events and interest groups.

 

Preston u3a offers numerous Interest Groups, go on visits, and attend our varied events.

The photos on our Flickr site are a good way to get an idea of what we're about.

 

We're all volunteers! And we welcome new members, especially if you feel you have a skill or idea that you want to share. 

Members share their knowledge and experience and learn together. There is no curriculum - members decide for themselves which Interest Groups, Events etc. they would like to join, or set up and lead. Join here

 

Want to try before you join?

You will be made most welcome at up to two meetings, eg a monthly meeting plus group meeting of your choice, before deciding whether to join us. The normal attendance charge will apply, which covers the cost of room hire. Contact the group leader in advance to check they have space - details in the groups summary
