Getting Involved is a Fantastic Way of Getting Even More out of your Membership!

Becoming a member of Newcastle u3a is not like joining your local gym or social club and simply paying a membership fee in order to receive certain benefits. It is about joining a charitable, not-for-profit organisation in which everyone is relied on to do what they can to support each other in order to get the most out of their membership.

Every member is asked to consider how they can contribute to the smooth running of the u3a, as well as taking advantage of its many benefits. Getting more involved brings its own rewards too, in terms of friendship, being part of a collaborative team, and having a real sense of purpose and achievement. Most u3a Members do not see volunteering as a chore. It is just another way to make more friends, learn new skills, have fun and get the most out of being a member.
