What happens in our Monthly Meetings:

  • We meet every month on the Third Wednesday of the month.
  • We meet at Tiverton Rugby Club (in the clubhouse, not on the pitch!)
  • The doors open at 1.30 for members and we start the meeting at 2.00 prompt.
  • We make a small charge of £1.50 to cover our meeting expenses.
  • The meetings normally take the form of a Presentation by a Guest Speaker (sometimes an Exe Valley U3A member), and follow-up questions, which takes approximately an hour.
  • Previous presentations have been as varied as "Birds that overwinter on the Exe Estuary" and "Tiverton's Place in The Universe".
  • After that we have tea or coffee with a biscuit or two and simply chat amongst ourselves, or with the guest presenter, until we finish the meeting at about 3.45 and then clear up.

Interest Groups:

You can also talk to us about joining one or more of our Interest Groups. These are run by the members, for the members. Each group is self managed, within U3A guidelines, and could have as few as 3 or 4 members or as many as 30! Please click on Interest Groups for more info.
