Brighton 5 Deans

Groups

Full and Associated Membership of the Brighton Five Deans u3a entitles you to join any of our interest groups if there is free space. In addition, any member of Newhaven and Peacehaven u3a may contact the Group Leader and join our interest groups provided there is free space.

The Groups are run by members, for members, and are mostly free of charge, except for:

  • a small voluntary contribution when refreshments are provided; and
  • a contribution to petrol cost when travelling to different venues with another u3a member.

The Groups mostly meet in Members' homes

They cover a wide range of interests, and the Committee are always looking for new ideas and new Group Leaders if your particular interest isn't covered or when a group is full.
