Upminster u3a runs 51 groups around Upminster.

Upminster u3a was founded in 2016 and has grown to more than 600 members and over 50 interest groups, all set up and run by members for members. Alongside the interest groups it runs social events and coach excursions and holds regular monthly meetings. Those meetings are normally on the third Tuesday of the month at the New Windmill Hall, opening with a few words from the chairman and followed by a main speaker and often a second one. Doors open at 1pm for a 1.30pm start.

Your local paper

Hearabouts

Stay connected with Upminster

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.
