The University of the Third Age
The Third Age: a time of creativity and fulfillment for older people
What is the Third Age? The Third Age refers to the period of time after the First Age of childhood dependence and the Second Age of full-time employment and parental responsibility. One in four of the UK population is in the Third Age. What is U3A? U3A stands for The University of the Third Age. U3A is a learning cooperative of older people which enables members to share many educational, creative and leisure activities. Why are we called U3A? A U3A is a university in the original sense of the word: a collective of people devoted to learning, with members not students, all of whom are in the Third Age. Who can join U3A? Anyone in the Third Age can join U3A and this includes people who are working part time. No qualifications are required and none are given. Find out more by visiting our regular Tuesday Coffee morning held between 10 and 11 30 a.m. in the main hall, Maghull Baptist Church, Hall Lane, Maghull.
