20th Anniversary Celebration
All members are warmly invited to join us for this special event to mark the start of our celebrations for our 20th anniversary as an Association.
We’re delighted to welcome back many of the original founders and early Committee Members – the visionary pioneers who brought the spirit of the UK-based University of the Third Age to the English-speaking community here in Jávea and surrounding areas. This is your chance to meet them and hear their stories of how it all began.
