Welcome to Maldon and District u3a
No longer in full-time work or raising a family?
Make the most of life - meet like-minded people and explore new ideas, skills and interests.
We are a non-commercial organisation for people in Maldon and surrounding areas who are no longer in (nor seeking) full-time employment . We are part of a UK-wide movement of locally-run interest groups that provide a wide range of opportunities to come together to learn for fun.
We hold a monthly meeting with a guest speaker in Wickham Bishops village hall on the 3rd Monday each month.
We have nearly 40 activity groups which organise meetings and outings for their particular interests. We also have several social events during the year to which all members are invited.
To join, simply click here, fill in the form and pay by bank transfer (or cheque).
Open Day: Friday 12th June at Maldon Town Hall 10:30am - 3:30pm.
Come and see displays of our Interest Groups and talk to their co-ordinators.
