Purbeck U3A

@=MP audience

 

Meeting Points is the monthly meeting for all members of Purbeck U3A. 

Our meetings are held in the Harman's Cross Village Hall on the fourth Thursday of the month (except July, August and December). We have an exciting line up of speakers for you to enjoy in 2024 (please see below).

 

The meetings start at 10.00am with refreshments (doors open 9:45am) and include a talk, PU3A updates and news at around 10.20am.

​This is an opportunity to meet your committee members, socialise with other PU3A members and be entertained by our visiting speakers.

New members are especially welcome – just let us know at the door that it is your first visit and we’ll help with introductions.

There is a small charge for attending these events (members £2 / guests £3)

  • Aprils's meeting - We had a very informative talk from the Planet Purbeck team who described their experience of working on local projects, to mitigate climate change and help Purbeck's community adapt and prepare for the inevitable impact.

  • Our next meeting is on Thursday 23rd May 2024 at 10.30 -
    This will be our Annual General Meeting:

    The AGM is a convivial occasion, our wonderful refreshment team, led by Sylvia and Barrie Warren, provide homemade cakes, free to all members.  It is an opportunity to hear from the committee about what they have been doing on your behalf, and to raise any issues or concerns you may have.
    After the formal part of the meeting, there will be a demonstration of Quigong by Penny Youssef. Penny is the 
    leader of our very successful Quigong group which meets on Wednesday mornings at Sandford Village Hall. Penny, a BHQA Instructor, will be introducing a taster of Quigong health exercises practice. Members of the audience will be encouraged to participate whilst seated. The demonstration will last about 15 minutes, plus questions. This will give you an opportunity to meet Penny if you are interested in joining her class.
    There is also an opportunity to stock up your garden.  At the back of the hall, the Gardening Group will be providing a sale of plants at very reasonable prices.  

    We look forward to seeing you there.
