One of the main benefits of joining Teignmouth u3a is the opportunity to participate in our special Interest Groups. We have a wide variety of Interest Groups running very successfully – you can use the list on this page to find out more about each one.
With more than 60 Interest Groups in the Teignmouth u3a, they are the beating heart of our u3a and follow the - "by the members, for the members" principal. To join a Teignmouth & District u3a Group, you must first be a member. This is essential to ensure that your participation in our activities is covered by the u3a’s insurance. Details of how to join with us can be found on the Join Us page.
You asked, we listened. To make it easier to find a group & their meeting day, a one-page interactive PDF of all our groups can be read here.
Please remember, that when sorting groups by meeting day for example, not all groups meet every single one of those days. Some groups only meet up 3rd or 4th ****day, so please check their meeting day by selecting them from the list. Full information of that group will then be found.

Monthly Featured Groups

Each month from August '26 until June '27, this page will feature six of our groups. This will be the scheule that it is planned to follow. Each Group Leader will be giving us a brief insight into their group.
