Groups

Details of our wide range of groups are shown below. Most are Indoor Groups which meet at locations in Cosham, Portsmouth – some in members’ homes, others in church or community meeting rooms which incur a small charge.

Most meetings are held on the same day each month (except August and Christmas/New Year). So for example the French Conversation Group meets on the FIRST MONDAY of the month and the General Meeting is held on the THIRD WEDNESDAY of the month (except August). Some groups meet on the same day every other week or at less frequent intervals.

There are no limits on the number of groups a member can join. The only proviso is, if there are two or more groups with very similar remits, for example: Play Reading 1 and Play Reading 2; Book Group 1 and Book Group 2, a member may only join one of the groups to allow other members to participate in their chosen interest.

Prospective members may attend one taster session before joining a group.  If there is an individual charge required by each member of the group, then the prospective members would be expected to pay the charge as well. Should they then wish to join a group or multiple groups they must join Portsdown u3a as a member.

Please note: From a Safeguarding perspective we do not allow dogs on our organised walks.

IMPORTANT: If you are interested in joining any of these groups please contact the Group Leader via contact@portsdownu3a.org.uk or at a General Meeting where more details will be available.
