What does it Cost?

Membership is £5 per year enabling you to enrol for any number of classes. Third Age's Membership Year runs from 1st October to 30th September in the following year.

Members may enrol at the first class session unless they have previously enrolled at one of our Early Enrolment sessions.

The classes cost £20 for the 10 week term, per class.

    The fees are different for the following activities:

  • Book Club : annual membership fee plus an enrolment fee of £8 for the year.
  • Reading Great Literature Together : membership fee plus £10 per 10 week term.

Some classes also arrange to meet during the Summer and class fees will be charged based on the length of the term.

Since there is no membership card or number, it is essential that the receipt is retained and presented at the first session of each class.


Classes

We always welcome suggestions for a new group, activity or pastime, particularly if you could offer to run the new group - or know someone who can.

Policy on Full Classes

Limits have to be placed on some classes because of the nature of the activity, availability of room space, facilities and equipment or the ability of the tutor to assist the number of students.

As an organisation, we have made the decision to give priority to existing students. However, the situation changes constantly and classes operate a waiting list. If you would like to be considered for a class, should a vacancy arise, please leave your contact details at any enrolment session or contact us by telephone or email.

Where groups have a waiting list, if a member does not attend for three consecutive meetings without informing the tutor, they may be deemed no longer to wish to attend that group.
