The Josser kiosk will also be available for those wanting to purchase tea, coffee and snacks, but all other food and drink will be provided by the committee.

Cirencester’s BIG LUNCH!
Cirencester’s BIG LUNCH!
Our u3a also had a stand at The Big Lunch on 22nd June, an event hosted by Cirencester Town Council. Despite some rain, there was a steady flow of visitors to the stand throughout the day, and lots of interest in what we do. “I always meant to join but wasn’t quite sure” was heard several times, along with “I had no idea there was so much on offer”! New members help to keep our organisation vibrant and relevant, and the new ideas they bring are always welcome.

It was lovely to see many of our current members throughout the day too, and thank you to those who came over to say hello and support the stand!

On the day, five GP practices from across the South Cotswolds Primary Care Network (PCN) linked up with the local voluntary sector and social enterprise organisations, to learn about some of the many support services and activities available. There were around 20 organisations represented, including Cirencester u3a, as well as the Churn Project, Home Start, Community Connexions, Cirencester Foodbank, Cotswold Friends and many others. The day provided an informal opportunity for all involved to speak to each other and gain a better understanding of what each of these great organisations do, and what they can provide the patients of the South Cotswolds PCN.

It was a long (and very hot!) day, but a fantastic opportunity to both spread the word about Cirencester u3a, and learn more about other support services available in our community. There was much interest in our organisation, and several medical practitioners that had not previously heard of the u3a, now have flyers to display in their surgeries.

As a result of this event, Cirencester u3a has been invited to take part in an event run by Cotswold District Council on 7 August, in St Michael’s Park, and we’re making plans!
