Open Meetings

Our regular Monthly Open Meetings are held on the second Thursday of each month at the Willersey Village Hall, which has ample parking. Meetings start at 2.00 pm and usually finish by 4.00 pm. The Village Hall is situated off the Willersey High Street on the B4632 between Broadway and Mickleton.

We ask for a donation of £2 per person attending any of our open meetings. This includes refreshments served at the end of the meeting. While enjoying tea or coffee and biscuits, you will be able to talk to other members who will be happy to tell you about our groups and activities.

So do come along and join us as you will be made very welcome.

We would particularly like to welcome new members at our Open Meetings. Please speak with Marion Davies or any other committee member on the door. They will be pleased to answer your questions and tell you more about our u3a.

Open Meetings Transport

The committee would like to facilitate lifts for those u3a members who would like to attend the Monthly Open Meetings but do not have transport.

If you are a member who would like a lift or a member prepared to offer a lift, please contact the Chairman.
