Welcome to Castle Bromwich U3A! So pleased you have taken a look at us.
Castle Bromwich u3a
CB u3a had two successful promotional events recently.
First was the Later Life Planning event at the Onward Club in Chelmsley Wood. This was the first time CBu3a had attended this event.
The second was at the annual Party in the Park at Castle Bromwich Playing Fields next to Arden Hall. Despite the weather local residents did come out on the day to make it a success.
The committee would like to thank all of those members who manned the stands on those days.
The
The u3a is an exciting and unique organisation for people who are no longer in full time employment and are looking to improve the quality of their life.
The u3a motto is ‘learn, laugh, live’ and you will hopefully enjoy discovering something new and share your own experiences of life with others. So, learn from others and let others learn from you - all informal, no pressure!
Make new friends, enjoy group activities, visit places of interest and learn in a pleasant, welcoming atmosphere.
