Age Action through the University of the Third Age network (U3A) helps bring lifelong learning to those in the 'third age'. This is defined by a period in life in which full time employment has ceased. Members form interest groups covering as wide a range of topics and activities as they desire; by the members, for the members.
No qualifications are sought or offered. Learning is for its own sake, with enjoyment being the prime motive, not qualifications or awards.
There are 30 U3A groups operating throughout Ireland. To get further information please contact u3a@ageaction.ie
