Basingstoke - Old Basing
Your local u3a
No longer working full-time or raising a family? Now’s the time to make the most of life. The u3a gives you the chance to develop your interests, make new friends and enjoy yourself.
We are an organisation run by members for members. Members are encouraged to help by, for example, being involved in the management of groups in which they have an interest, or leading meetings within groups.
In this short film, we explain the benefits of becoming a member of the Basingstoke - Old Basing u3a

A printable summary of the groups we run can be found here.
New groups
We are always looking to provide our members with more variety or to start a second group when a group is full. The committee member who is responsible for Group Development can be contacted via NewGroups@basingstokeu3a.org

Volunteer?
As our u3a continues to grow, we want to ensure our community remains vibrant and well-run. To do that, we are looking for a few more friendly faces to help us behind the scenes. We are looking for members to volunteer for simple tasks that take the pressure off our core team, and a couple of new Committee members to join us in July 2026. If you’d like to get involved, please use the contact form or email volunteer@basingstokeu3a.org
