Cardigan u3a is a lively and friendly organisation, part of the worldwide u3a, offering a wide range of learning, creative and leisure groups for the retired and semi-retired. Anyone who is no longer in full-time employment is eligible to join. It’s a good way to meet people and make new friends.

u3a is not an academic institution which awards degrees. No formal qualifications are required to join, only an interest in the subject.
