​South Solihull U3A​

Wishing you all a better 2021 

What is U3A?

The U3A exists to provide a framework in which retired and semi-retired people from all backgrounds can get involved in helping to create, join and run different learning-based activities. These improve our knowledge and skills, enhance our physical and mental well-being and keep us socially connected.
​

Who are we?

South Solihull U3A are a lively and friendly group of over 150 members, who meet in Bentley Heath Community Centre, Widney Road, Bentley Heath, Solihull, B93 9BQ every second Monday of the month (see Diary). Free parking is available on site and in the adjacent car park. We host a range of interesting speakers and offer a wide range of topics and activities managed by members as group coordinators (see Interest Groups). 

We are always open to new members - for further information please click  contact us

WE ARE NOT MEETING Face to Face AT ALL AT THE MOMENT - WE WILL ANNOUNCE RECOMMENCEMENT HERE - MEANWHILE KEEP YOURSELF SAFE

Chairman's Message - 25 January 2021
​

Hello everyone.
 
I do hope that you are all well. 
As your new chair, I am delighted to introduce the start of the SSU3A year. 
Our committee met last week and decided that it was timely to re-introduce the monthly Core meetings, We started on  Monday February 8th with an on-line talk As we are presently unable to gather back at the Village Hall, the meetings will be in a virtual format, until lockdown restrictions are lifted. 
Please look at "Meetings and Diary" for upcoming events
On behalf of all your Committee, I want to welcome you back to SSU3A and the prospect of happier times ahead for us all.
 With best wishes 
Malcolm Clark
