Welcome to Coventry Sherbourne u3a

Who are we?

We are part of the wider u3a movement with the aim of socialising, learning new skills and sharing interests with a like-minded community of those in retirement.

Just because working life or raising a family winds down doesn't mean you can't still learn and laugh!

There are a total of three u3a groups meeting in Coventry, UK; we are the "Coventry Sherbourne" group that meets in the east of the city.

What do we do?

The monthly meeting is usually a general interest talk of about 45 minutes followed by the chance to catch-up over a cup of tea. It provides a opportunity to investigate and sign up for activities.

Activities include walks, quizzes, outings and crafts meeting throughout the month.

Where do we meet?

Our main get together is on the first Thursday of every month (2pm) at Wyken Community Centre, Westmorland Rd, just off Belgrave Rd (CV2 5PY). You are welcome to come and join us.

Our various friendly interest groups meet throughout every month at their own locations.

Retired? Please come along and meet us.
