Monthly Meetings

Monthly Meetings and Open Days

We meet at 2pm on the first Wednesday of each month (except August and December) in the Angel Centre, Tonbridge (map). We invite interesting speakers and always follow the talk with the chance to chat over a tea or coffee.

Once a year this meeting is dedicated to an Open Day where there is the opportunity to talk to many group leaders. Details of these meetings are given on the Events page.

We have had positive reports from most of those that joined the January monthly meeting over zoom. We will be making the February meeting available over zoom. The meeting id is published in the February Journal. These meetings are for members only. Please don’t circulate these details outside the u3a.

If you would like to be sent an e-mail with the link to these meetings each month or have any questions about this new service, please e-mail me at zoom@tonbridgeu3a.uk The zoom service is being provided for those members that cannot join us in the Medway Hall for whatever reason. 


Do come to the meeting if you are able; you would then hear the speaker live and enjoy meeting other members after the talk over a tea or coffee.

WEDNESDAY 3 JANUARY

Sherlock Holmes - Tony Strange Harris

Our January meeting welcomes sleuth actor and historian Tony Harris, who is a professional comedian, raconteur and actor specialising in historical talks with an hysterical twist. He performs all over the UK for U3As and similar groups. He concludes that Jack the Ripper has never been caught - but that's because Sherlock Holmes was not on the case. For this Victorian murder mystery Holmes and Watson get to grips with the clues and finally identify the killer. 

The game's afoot! It's a talk not to be missed
