Our approach to this group is going to be very different to what you are used to!!!!
You don’t need to join, everyone is a member of the Group.
There won’t be regular monthly meetings at a specific venue.
Instead, we will be arranging Group Activities that you have suggested. So, if you have anything on your “Bucket List” or there is an activity that you have always wanted to do – just get in touch with us via the above link and we’ll see what we can arrange.
We will also need your support if you have any specific knowledge or contacts for the activity that you have suggested.
Remember u3a’s ethos: BY THE MEMBERS FOR THE MEMBERS.
When we have an experience arranged, we will send out details to you all.

The very first event to be organised is a PRIVATE ALPACA TREK on Thursday 25th September 2025 at 3pm at Great Ground Farm, Farndon Road, Woodford Halse. NN11 3TT.

This is a unique opportunity where we will learn about these mythical creatures and get to know them. We will be paired with a suitable one and then take him on a personally guided walk around the farm, with stunning views of the surrounding countryside. We may even get to see some babies!!! There will also be plenty of opportunities to take photos.

We will walk fairly slowly and you will also need to dress for the weather and wear sturdy closed toe shoes.

The total experience takes 60 minutes and costs £30. (which once paid is non-refundable).

Places for this event are limited and will be allocated on a first come first served basis. So, if you want to take part in this amazing experience, please contact using the above link with the following information:
