Events
Preston u3a holds monthly meetings (click here) and one-off events (click here) - make sure you check out both lists! Top tip - put dates you fancy into your own diary or calendar straight away.
Groups may also organise their own special events - check details of these with the groups you join.
All monthly meetings are held at Fulwood Free Methodist Church and start at 2.00pm
Our monthly meeting and the additional events programme provides a wide range of educational and social activities that should appeal to our members.
Admission - £2.00 for monthly meetings.
Non-members may attend two meetings of their choice e.g. monthly meeting and/or a group meeting before deciding whether or not to join us.
Often we have visiting speakers or sometimes presentations put together by our own members. If you can suggest the names of good speakers we would like to hear from you.
