It is completely separate from all local u3as, including Bromsgrove u3a. Paying to use the Interest Groups Online service doesn't include membership of Bromsgrove u3a. You can of course do both but if it's a choice, please join Bromsgrove u3a where you'll find a friendly face-to-face welcome. (Please click on the button)

Cotswold Link

Bromsgrove is a member of this grouping of u3as.

What is Cotswold Link?
It is a network of 27 u3as covering Gloucestershire, Herefordshire and Worcestershire.

Cotswold Link reciprocal arrangement.
In the interests of sharing and perpetuating the aims of the u3a movement, the Link has set up a reciprocal arrangement between its member u3as. Any member of a Link u3a may attend one Group activity in another Link u3a, without having to become a member of that other u3a. General meetings of the u3a do not count as a group activity. Session fees for the group activity will still apply. This is an entirely voluntary agreement between Link u3as but most participate.

See what else the Cotswold Link can provide.

The Cotswold Link also organises an annual Special Interest Day, which is open to members of all u3as affiliated to the network.

Check out the website to find out more.
