Monthly Meetings
Each month (except August) we have a Monthly Meeting at which a guest speaker gives an illustrated presentation, which is open to members and non-members.
Topics range far and wide from, for example, climate change to art history, hidden London to how to avoid being scammed – and everything in between.
Join us on the first Thursday of the month at Ewen Hall, Wood Street, Barnet EN5 4BW for coffee/tea from 9.30am. The presentations start at 10.30am. It’s also an opportunity to meet other members and sign up for our groups and outings.
Forthcoming talks:

Getting to Ewen Hall
Please note that u3a members are not allowed to park at the front of Ewen Hall unless you are bringing equipment for our meetings or if you have requested and been given permission by the Co-Chairs for a particular reason. Ideally, please come by public transport – several bus routes stop very close by. If you do need to come by car, you can park in the nearby streets or The Spires car park.
