Welcome!

Around Chesham by Lalage Smyth, member of the Photography and Digital Imaging Groups

Welcome to the website of Chess Valley u3a

Operating in and around Chesham in Buckinghamshire, we offer a wide range of activities for those in their ‘third age’, when they are no longer working full time and are able to pursue other interests.

Our members take part in activities ranging from Art to Wildlife, with books, dinghy sailing, French, history and a lot more in between.

Our next General Meeting is on Thursday 12th October 2023 starting at 2pm when our speaker will be Robert Seatter with his talk 100 (and one) Years of the BBC. Robert is a poet, performer, broadcaster and arts professional. He has won many awards as a poet, as well as judging various poetry awards. He is the head of BBC History Department and will tell the story of the corporation at the heart of national life as well as on the global stage. The venue for this meeting is the Broadway Baptist Church in Chesham Broadway, which is wheelchair-accessible and equipped with a hearing loop.

If you are not currently a member of Chess Valley u3a and would like to sample a General Meeting and learn more about us, please come along and you will receive a warm welcome.

Best wishes
