Welcome to the website of the North West Region of u3as
All About Us
Every u3a is a member of the Third Age Trust and across the 9 regions and 3 nations of the UK there are now over 1000 u3as, and over 400,000 members.
The North West Region of u3as stretches from North Cumbria to South Cheshire and from the Pennines to the Isle of Man.
We are a very diverse and exciting region, including seaside resorts, rural farming villages and large metropolitan areas. We currently have 98 u3as with around 43,000 members. The u3as within our region are equally diverse, reflecting this diversity. We all have one thing in common: we all like to learn, to laugh and to live!

What We Do
We are a charity whose purpose is to support the work of the all the u3as within the region. We were formed in 2009 and have an elected committee.
Our work tends to focus on helping u3as to recruit members, develop their u3as, support events and encourage the growth of networks and new u3as throughout the North West Region.
Currently our committee, working alongside our Council Representatives, to plan an extensive program of events, compile a list of recommended speakers and non-u3a events of interest to North West members, and provide general information and support to our u3as.
