Membership of the u3a is open to anyone in the "Third Age",
i.e. after the second age of full-time employment and parental
responsibility
(see
more on the national u3a website).
The full annual membership subscription (see below) is due
January 1st. Membership renewals are accepted from November 1st.
The subscription includes £4 as the
membership subscription for the Third Age Trust (TAT),
our parent organisation, and also pays for direct delivery of the
u3a magazine, "Third Age Matters", currently £3.10.
The TAT membership subscription is waived if you are a full
member of another u3a branch - that is, you pay the
TAT subscription at that other branch.
New members joining later in the year pay reduced rates.
See below, or contact the
for more information.
After joining the branch you can join any of the groups simply by adding your name to the group
sign-up sheet at the monthly meeting or by contacting the Group Coordinators,
who will also be happy to answer any questions about the groups.

| * | includes £4.00 TAT membership subscription**,
waived if already paid to another u3a |
| ** | The Third Age Trust(TAT) membership
subscription is paid to TAT out of membership dues, and
provides insurance coverage for group leaders and the branch, support and training.
For that reason, as well as to maintain their membership, it is important
for members to pay their dues promptly, and that is also why
we cannot allow non-u3a-members to join groups. |
| *** |
Associate members do not attend any branch meetings.
When the maximum capacity of our facilities is reached
there will be a lower subscription. |
