Who we are
Wrekin u3a is a friendly and welcoming group for people in the area who are in later life.
We have a wide range of Events and special Interest Groups, from Art Appreciation to Walking Groups, and from Craft Groups to Tai Chi. The vibe is informal, relaxed and open to new ideas – it’s run by people like you for people like you.
Please see the latest pictures from our Lake District holiday in May 2026 at Cultural Visits
Monthly Meeting
Don’t forget: Parking is available for Wrekin u3a members at the Park House Hotel for our Tuesday General Meeting if spaces are unavailable in the village car park.
