Welcome to Harrow u3a
Who are we?
We are a self-sustaining group, in that our members share knowledge and skills to create classes. We are one of the larger groups in the UK and part of a worldwide organisation. We are fortunate to have the use of a substantial venue at Harrow Arts Centre for many classes, others are held in members’ homes.
There are no age restrictions, if you have free time during the day, you’re welcome to join us. We think of learning as fun and challenging and value all members’ experience to provide a broad range of groups.

Some thoughts from our chairperson
Keeping up to date in a swiftly changing world is quite a challenge and we are caught up in many changes, some challenging but all hopefully for the good.
We have new groups to join and new members working hard to develop Harrow u3a. Being one of the largest u3a groups in the country with so many and diverse classes to run keeps us on our toes. We are fortunate to have Harrow Arts Centre as a hub for our activities as well as groups in member's homes. Do please investigate our website for details and we welcome potential members for a "taster sessions" to our activities.
