Bishop`s Stortford u3a runs 45 groups around Bishop`s Stortford.

Bishop's Stortford u3a is a charity started in 1985, run entirely by members for members: about 700 of them, with more than 50 member-led interest groups from antiques and collectables to walking, plus social events, holidays and day trips. Monthly meetings with talks are held at the Methodist Church on South Street, and the guiding principle is self-help: no exams, no accreditation, just pleasure. If the group a member wants is full or doesn't exist, they can start their own.

Your local paper

Hearabouts

Stay connected with Bishop`s Stortford

A local paper for your patch, delivered by email. Who's just started up, what's in season, when the markets are on, what's on this month, and the odd story about how a place like yours keeps its money close to home.

Good news, mostly. There's enough of the other kind about.








Just the district, TQ9, never your full address.

Your postcode does one more thing. It's a show of hands for your own patch. Every signup tells the bakers, growers and makers nearby that their neighbours are behind them, and that count is what convinces the next one to put themselves on the map. More of us backing local means more to buy, closer to home.

We haven't sent the first one yet. Sign up now and you'll be there for it.
