Cheddar Valley u3a On the Road with the Day Trippers.
An almost full coach load of members enjoyed May’s good weather on a visit to Chester. So successful was the day that the June trip to Stow on the Wold was fully booked, with a waiting list and September’s outing to Oxford is selling fast. Be quick to contact the Day Trippers Committee if you want to travel! There will be no Speaker Meetings or Coffee Mornings now until September, when we look forward to welcoming you all back.

Details of all events and contacts are on our website: www.u3asites.org.uk/cheddar-valley/home
