Welcome! The U3AC Bulletin is emailed out to members every Wednesday. It contains the latest news, courses and events.
Term starts Monday 7 October – check the start of each course in which you are enrolled on the website
Tuesday 8 October at 1 pm – The Film Group screening will be Tess at Arts Picturehouse
Wednesday 9 October at 2.15 pm Wednesday Lecture will be Cambridge Children’s Hospital by Dame Mary Archer. Booking is now open to attend in person in the Pink room – please contact the Office.
Unfortunately the lift is currently out of order and is unlikely to be fixed in time for the start of term. We apologise for the inconvenience.
Cases of Covid and colds are again rising and as U3AC members are a high-risk demographic group we politely request you to consider your fellow U3AC members and if you feel unwell, particularly if you have a temperature and display symptoms of a respiratory infection, please do not attend your courses or enter the Bridge Street premises or any of our external venues used for courses and activities.
As mentioned by the Chair in the August Newsletter, the U3AC member pin badges will be available to purchase from the reception desk at a cost of £1 (cash only please) from Monday 7 October.
A visit to Spencer House and Tate Britain has been arranged on Monday 25 November 2024. Cost £45.50. Application forms will be available from 7 October.
If you are doing courses on Zoom, please make sure your Zoom app is up to date. Zoom links for courses will be sent before term starts.
If you are unable to attend one of your allocated courses, please let us know now rather than wait until term starts so that the place can be offered to someone on the waiting list. Thank you.
If you are interested in applying for additional courses, there is a Vacancy list on the website showing all courses currently with spaces; this is regularly updated.
U3AC is making a short film to encourage recruitment of new U3AC tutors and would like to interview current tutors about their role. Please get in touch if you would be willing to spare an hour of your time for this. Laura Sims, email: lauraRsims36@gmail.com
Several tutors have advised us that members have not been receiving their emails and when the member has checked they have found them in their spam or junk folder. It is a good idea to check these folders regularly so that you don’t miss any important information.
