Monthly meetings
Meetings are typically held on the second Monday of each month between 10:00 and 12:00, although there may be an occasional change of date if there is a clash with another function (these changes do not happen at short notice).
Members should just turn up at the Winston Churchill Hall, Bury Street, Ruislip before 10am on the day of the Meeting.
This is also a Hybrid meeting meaning that members can attend the meeting via Zoom if they can't make it to the hall. This allows you to still keep up to date with all the news and our guest speaker from you home. We will send out an email to all our members before the meeting with all the Zoom conncetion details on.
We also run a slideshow for members to see some of the interesting activities and events that have taken place during the month. If you have any photos from group meetings or visits that you can share with the members on the slideshow then please send them to Hillingdonu3a.pictures@gmail.com
Visits
Hillingdon u3a Visits are outings that are not specific to a group. The Visits Team will research and arrange these outings for us and when launched, they will be shown on the Events below and announced at the Monthly Meeting. You will then be able to apply for a place and details on How to Apply is here.
London Region Activities
The London Region u3a also organise activities which is open to any u3a in the London Area. We will also include some of these in our Events list.
