Busy Bees

Spring has sprung with lighter evenings, lots of birdsong, blue carpets of bluebells appearing and Biddulph u3a has sprung into action with its busy Summer Term plans. 

After a great year last year Biddulph u3a sprung into action in 2026! A similar program of events for all of its members, giving them chance to meet, socialise and enjoy time with other members of our u3a, are in their planning stages.

Our membership is growing, our Keep Fit now has 70 members and Pickleball now  has 2 groups .

Biddulph u3a has  over 50 interest groups and these would not be possible without our wonderful Group Leaders who give up their time to organise our wide variety of activities. 

We are always on the lookout for new interest groups, so if you are sitting at home reading this and thinking, I could do a  ……….  group. It could be Knit and Natter, a Motorcycle Group, Hockey, Local History, Wildlife, Using a Mobile Phone, Darts, Beer Tasting, Chair Yoga, Table Football; the list is endless. So if you have an interest that you think you would like to share with others then please call our Group Coordinator, Bill, on    07946479375. 

Biddulph u3a is very fortunate to have its own base, Lund House, the old Doctors’ Surgery, so we have a variety of sizes of rooms to accommodate your needs. Groups here can run at any time of the day, even in the evenings and weekends. 

The u3a has NO AGE LIMIT you just have to be no longer looking for full time work! 

Come along and join us! 

It would be great to see even more people enjoying what Biddulph u3a has on offer!
