Happy March everyone!
By now we should be seeing those spring bulbs popping up everywhere, the days getting longer, giving us that lift coming out of the winter time.
I am pleased to say our groups must be flourishing - no news is good news. Please do not forget to check our website periodically for news of any new groups starting up. If you are a group leader, please could I ask that you check that members of your group are signed up, accordingly, with Tonbridge u3a, as occasionally, it appears that there are people not showing as such and so are not insured to be taking part in any of our group activities, wherever the meet is. This is rare but is important, thank you. Do please contact me, or the membership secretary if you need any assistance.
And a reminder that on Wednesday 13 March we have our annual Spring 'Thank you' lunch to our brilliant Group Leaders and other
significant helpers within Tonbridge u3a. Where would we be without you! I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible then.
All the best

Current groups
Bridge Duplicate
This is an invite to any member, who would like to try out this group, which was flourishing pre covid and since then, has lost some of its members and hence a few more would make the meeting more buoyant. All levels are welcome. We meet on Thursday morning, twice a month, in a local hall.
All levels are welcome', but if a complete novice, please try the Beginners Bridge group.
If you would like further information, do please contact the leader Anthony Sayer at
