Introduction
We are the local u3a branch for retired or semi-retired people in Forth Valley (Central Scotland). We offer many ways to stretch your mind or body and to socialise with like-minded older people. This includes interest groups, general meetings, summer activities and publications. If you are no longer working or raising a family, u3a gives you the chance to develop your interests, make new friends and enjoy yourself. Come and join us, and learn, laugh and live!
Our privacy policy is explained on the Data Protection page.
Upcoming Events
The Annual Quiz – Friday 25th April at 2pm in Holy Trinity Church Hall, Dumbarton Road Stirling
Come along and join us for a fun afternoon with our Quizmaster, George Johnston. Will you be a member of the team triumphantly taking away a ‘valuable’ prize or pretending that a wooden spoon will come in handy, or just somewhere in between? It’s always an enjoyable occasion and a great way of making new friends or getting together with old ones. As usual there will be tea, coffee, baking and chat afterwards.
Space is limited and the Quiz has always been very popular, so if you want to take part please register as soon as possible, but by Monday 21st April at the latest, by emailing Anne Preston on admin@fvu3a.org.uk
