It is a th

There is a wide range of interest groups ranging from activity groups for walking, cycling and dancing to artistic groups for creative writing, music making and photography to more educational such as foreign languages, local history and many more. Groups are run on a self-help basis and there are no formal academic attainment levels or exams. Once a month there is a get together in the Market Rasen Festival Hall where you can meet other members and find out what's going on. Also on the monthly meetings there is usually a guest speaker who will talk on a particular topic of interest. Cost

The u3a is an official non-profit making charity. Activities are organised and run by members for no fee. As such annual membership costs are very low (currently less than £20) which covers things such as room hire, consumables and guest expenses. Social

Having fun is part of the shared u3a vision. As well as the interest groups there are regular group visits and longer trips on offer as well as an annual Christmas dinner. The West Wolds u3a is a great place to make new friends and have fun. Covid-19
