Torrevieja u3a – University of the Third Age
Membership of the u3a is not related to a chronological age but to the Third Age of life which comes after full-time employment and family responsibilities. There is no upper or lower age, or ethnic or cultural distinction, for membership.
We encourage all our members to Learn, Laugh, Live.
Our aim
- To encourage and enable people to help each other by sharing their knowledge, skills, interests and experience.
- To demonstrate the benefits and enjoyment to be gained and the new horizons to be discovered.
- To celebrate the capabilities and potential of the Third Age and its value to society.
Group Activities
- Our many and diverse activity Groups are run by you, for you.
- Members are encouraged to become Group Leaders and voluntarily share their interests, wisdom and practical knowledge to organise and host new groups.
- There is no accreditation or validation and there are no assessments or qualifications to be gained.
