Welcome to Bristol U3A
Bristol U3A, which is affiliated to the national U3A, offers a programme of educational and leisure activities for retired people. Educational qualifications are are not required for admission and none are awarded. What is essential is that members should contribute their own experience, interests and enthusiasms actively, so that they learn from each other.
We do not employ professional teachers but lead each other in courses of study or other activities, each of us contributing whatever he or she can do.
We welcome new members to a wide and varied number of activities - why not come and try us and, if you likewhat we have to offer, do join us.

If you are on email you can be sent a copy as an attachment - we are running short of paper copies.
