Buxton & District u3a runs 46 groups around Buxton.
Buxton and District u3a is marking its 30th anniversary with a year of events, including a creative arts and leisure showcase. Alongside its interest groups it holds a monthly meeting with a speaker, and arranges outings such as a Bess of Hardwick exhibition at Hardwick Hall and trips to Bury for the market, churches and museums. There is no certified teaching or training: group members support each other to learn new skills.

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.
