u3a

Cambourne & District

Membership

(NOTE to those considering joining us: we are based in Cambourne, Cambridgeshire - not Camborne, Cornwall!)

The membership year for Cambourne & District u3a runs from July 1st to June 30th, and there is an annual membership fee of £20. (If you are already a member of another u3a, there is a discount of £3.50; also, if two members live at the same address, there's a £1 discount per member.) If you first join in April, May or June, you pay the full membership fee, but that covers the coming membership year as well! There is a discounted price if you join in January-March, to cover the remaining part of the membership year.

Membership entitles you to attend our monthly meetings (normally held on the third Friday of the month at The Hub, see the Events page) and the AGM, and to take part in the activities of any of our Groups. (Note that some groups charge an extra fee per meeting, to cover costs such as room hire, materials, etc.)

We use a system called Beacon to hold our membership details; to see the information we hold about you, visit the Membership Portal, or click on one of the following links to JOIN online using a credit or debit card, or RENEW your membership online. If you prefer not to use your credit card or debit card online, you can download and complete a membership form, email a scanned copy or photo to u3a.membership@cambourne.org, and transfer the membership fee via BACS to our bank account:

  1. as of November 2021 Metro Bank was not part of the inter-bank 'Confirmation of Payee' (CoP) scheme; this means that your bank may ask you to double-check the details you give are correct. For more details of the CoP scheme, see https://www.ukfinance.org.uk/confirmation-of-payee)
  2. the same account details can be used when paying for membership in a group, say, or payment for a study trip. Typically, it will be an abbreviated name for the group or trip, followed by your membership number (or surname, if unambiguous in the group, and short enough to fit!)
