Welcome to Alsager & District U3A

Latest update: Tuesday 20th July 2021

Restarting Activities

We are hoping to restart all Alsager U3A activities from September 6th, including our Monday morning meetings at the Civic, where social distancing and other precautions will be in place.

Although all legal Covid-19 restrictions have been lifted (as of July 19th), the committee is conscious that most of our members belong to the more vulnerable age-group, and will continue to monitor the situation carefully with a cautious approach to arrangements as meetings resume.

The Chair's next Newsletter, due to be issued in late August, will give more details – so look out for that.

If you have any queries please do not hesitate to contact Alan Bell (Groups Coordinator) at the following email address: groups@alsageru3a.org.uk, or by phone on 01270 878013

The coronavirus pandemic is impacting the lives of everyone. This includes your local Alsager U3A. Many of our members belong to the "at risk" category, therefore we are closely monitoring (and swiftly acting upon) any changes in government advice regarding social distancing.

The good news: although our group activities are suspended in line with the lockdown regulations, Alsager U3A is still open! We are offering a host of distance activities via Zoom and email (plus news updates) – keeping members safe, and keeping members connected.

There's never been a better time, to join Alsager U3A.
