When members of the Committee have served their allotted time their replacements must be nominated and elected by the membership and announced at the June AGM. For further information regarding the running of our U3A please see the Constitution page
The Committee meets once a month at the Burnham Council Offices on the Friday preceding the monthly meeting to discuss and formulate policies relating to the U3A.
