This page links the study groups that will be running this year and which week(s) of the month they will take place. Many groups meet in a member's home and when this happens, the size of the group may be restricted.
Where space permits - usually for meetings that are held in larger halls - it is possible for Mead's members to attend other u3a groups' meetings but this may only be done by prior arrangement.
Please click on the group name for more information about the individual group.
