Barnet U3A is NOT a university. We have a wide range of groups engaged in what might be called leisure pursuits for example Gardening, Board Games, Pilates and lots of Walking Groups
Live
The social side of Barnet U3A is central to our success. We have Quizzes, Xmas dinners and social events. Virtually every group has a social dimension.
