Groups are the heart of the U3A, and participating in or leading a group is an excellent way to enjoy your favourite pastime with other members who share a common interest.
The aim of the U3A Javea is to enrich our lives through activity groups which all members are welcome to join. These groups encompass a multitude of topics, including social, educational, cultural, recreational and physical, where members may share experiences and enjoy activities with like-minded people.
Please be aware that members taking part in group activities do so entirely at their own risk and are responsible for their own insurance cover.
Please remember that only Jávea U3A members can join a Group and that some Groups are already fully subscribed and may operate a waiting list for new members. If the Group in which you are interested is already full, or your interests are not reflected in the list below, perhaps you would consider starting a new or parallel Group. If so, please send an email to the Groups Coordinator.
So – should you wish to join a group or seek more information about it simply click on the Group heading below. This will allow you to contact the Group Leader via the email link provided.
And/or – if you have ideas for forming a new group please contact the Groups Coordinator.
