About Cambourne & District u3a

The u3a is a charitable educational trust, set up under the umbrella of the Third Age Trust. The Charitable purpose of this trust is "the advancement of education, and in particular the education of older people and those who are retired from full time work, by all means including associated activities conducive to learning and personal development, in Cambourne and its surrounding locality."

The constitution (a copy of which can be downloaded from our policies page) establishes an executive committee whose members act as the trustees. Following our 2024 AGM, the current committee members are given below.
