Welcome to Wonersh u3a

If you are retired from full-time employment and want to stretch your mind, extend your social life, and have fun, Wonersh U3A may be just what you are looking for. Wonersh U3A is one of Surrey's smaller but vibrant groups, with around 300 members. We are part of the University of the Third Age, a movement that began in France but is now widespread in many countries.

Wonersh U3A was first established in 1984 following an initiative from the Education Department of the University of Surrey. Ten years later, we became affiliated with the U3A, which had become a nationwide organisation by then. Although listed as Wonersh U3A, we welcome members from all other surrounding areas.

Meetings are held at various local venues in and around Wonersh. In addition to these meetings we have many social events and outings that include trips to theatres, exhibitions, galleries, National Trust properties, and other places of interest, for which all members are eligible. Like all U3A groups, Wonersh U3A is a self-help organisation, and members are encouraged to use their previous experience to lead a group or perhaps teach a subject.

Our subscription year starts 01 January annually and membership costs £16. New members may join at any time during the year. Visitors are welcome but are asked to pay £2 per meeting. Some activities, such as Pilates and Tai Chi, require a termly fee payable in advance to provide qualified instructors.

To join Wonersh U3A, download and complete the Membership Application Form, which can be found by clicking on the link on the Join/Renew page. If you join us, you will be sure of a warm welcome and a varied choice of activities and programmes.
