Cowbridge

Welcome to Cowbridge u3a.

u3a is a UK-wide movement of locally-run interest groups that provide a wide range of opportunities to come together to learn for fun. Memberships is open to everyone who is not working full-time to explore new ideas, skills and activities together.

Cowbridge u3a, charity No 1072693, was founded in 1995. We currently have over 275 members and over 20 different interest Groups.

We are a friendly organisation who have meetings for all members on the second Wednesday of each month in the Cowbridge Town Hall at 2.00 pm. The meeting room is on the first floor and is accessed by the green door on the west side of the building, opposite the Beacon Church. A lift is available.

General Meetings and selected group events in the next 10 days are shown on this page. The Events page has information on the monthly General Meetings, and any planned outings and special events for the next few months.

The best way to really get involved with Cowbridge u3a and make new friends and acquaintances is to join one or more of the interest groups. See the Groups page for more information on the various groups, their events, and how to contact them. Many groups are happy for non members to attend initially as guests to see if they like it before deciding whether or not to join.

Want to know more? Come along to Morning Coffee at 11am on the last Monday of the month at 96 Degrees(to the rear of the Town Hall).
