U3A Network Victoria is the peak body for the University of the Third Age (U3A), providing resources, training and support to U3As and their 38,000-plus members as part of a global movement that educates, entertains and engages older people in their ‘third age’ of life.

From dancing to woodwork, languages to mahjong, a U3A membership is a low-cost way to stay active, pursue your passion, find new interests and, most importantly, have fun and make friends. U3As keep your brains stimulated, improve your fitness and increase social activity.

“Since retiring U3A has connected me to like-minded members who have become friends and allowed me to pursue my passions in art appreciation, history and social activities. Can highly recommend for those looking to make new friends post retirement.”

“I discovered my local U3A a couple of years ago and find that I have something interesting or healthy or socially to do almost every day of the week. I am now even on the committee! U3A is a wonderful community resource that offers stimulating classes, talks and discussions, movie afternoons, music in peoples homes, poetry and language learning; health promoting activities like Tai Chi, exercise classes, bike riding, walking, dog walking; social activities such as coffee mornings and lunches. I recommend anyone to join their local U3A!”

“Love U3A. Classes are the occasion to enjoy getting together with interesting like-minded people and exercising the grey matter.”
