"A meeting will be held in the town Hall on Friday, July 7, at 4 pm to answer any questions and to give any further information required by the groups to set up and position in the Town Hall," Joyce Lane, U3A Publicity Officer, said.
"The highlight of 2022 for Horsham U3A was the Community Groups Expo during Seniors Week. This was a huge success, with about fifty groups attending despite the terrible wet weather. Approximately three hundred people entered the Town Hall doors on the day.
Planning is on the way for the 2nd U3A Community Groups Expo 2023 on October 4," she said.
So far, registration forms have been sent to the forty-seven groups that were at the community groups expo last year.
Members are in the process of planning and are hopeful that all groups will have the opportunity to participate.
