About Us

Leyland u3a is affiliated to the University of the Third Age (u3a), a UK-wide movement of locally run groups. The u3a’s purpose is to provide people in their ‘third age’ – retired or semi-retired people – with opportunities to share their experiences and learn from each other’s expertise. Each group provides a wide range of opportunities to come together to learn for fun and explore new ideas, skills, and activities.

Leyland u3a was started by a dedicated group of volunteers in 2014 and now has over 250 members with more than twenty interest groups.

As a registered charity, Leyland u3a is run by an elected Committee who are also trustees. Other members may be co-opted to the Committee from time to time to help.
