Section D                      Achievements and performance 

**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

On 31 July 25, there were 1779 members in Camberley & District U3A, which is an increase of 46 over the year.  We continue to advertise the benefits of membership through existing channels, including our website. In addition, we are using Facebook as a means of communicating with both existing and prospective members and are publicising our activities through regular pieces in a local newsletter. 

Group activities are at the heart of any U3A’s activities and we continued to provide an extensive programme of different types of group activities. Most group activities took place in a hired venue, a group leader’s home or, for our walking groups, in the local countryside.  A small number of groups have continued to meet online as this best meets the wishes of the group leader and members.  Several new groups were set up during the year covering a diverse range of activities like Backgammon, the English Legal System, Health and Wellbeing, History – Rogues, Robbers and Radicals, Music Band, Canasta, Run for Fun and Bridge - Beginners Plus. 

The Travel & Tourism team ran a full and very popular programme of outings for members.  These included both day trips to places like Dover Castle and Hatfield House as well as longer trips further afield to places like the Isle of Man and Hauts-de-France.  The Theatre group, which started last year, has continued to arrange trips to a wide range of theatre productions. 

Monthly meetings, where an external speaker gives a talk, and coffee mornings were enjoyed by members throughout the year.  In addition, members also enjoyed The Members Talk, which is a new monthly series of talks by Camberley U3A members which started this year. 

During the year, our first evening in-house activity – a barn dance – was held and was a great success. Our in-house IT system continues to underpin the effective management of all of our functions.  More members are also taking advantage of being able to pay fees online. 

Our U3A is wholly dependent on members volunteering to take on various roles such as running a group and helping with group activities, running outings, working as a trustee or in one of the support teams looking after group activities such as timetable and venues, membership support, finance, IT support and communications.  Many thanks to all volunteers for all their contributions over the past year.

**Section E                    Financial review** ~~a~~ 

Cash funds at the end of July 2025 were £54,936. **Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves** Cash reserves, after adjusting for creditors and pre-payments at year end were £46,249. This is equivalent to approximately 43% of estimated CU3A expenditure in 2024-25, excluding expenditure related to outings. 

Reserves are forecast to increase slightly during 2025-26 and at the end of July 2026 are expected to be equivalent to between 4 and 6 months’ of total expenditure, excluding expenditure related to outings, in line with Trustees’ policy on reserves.

Section D                      Achievements and performance 

**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

On 31 July 25, there were 1779 members in Camberley & District U3A, which is an increase of 46 over the year.  We continue to advertise the benefits of membership through existing channels, including our website. In addition, we are using Facebook as a means of communicating with both existing and prospective members and are publicising our activities through regular pieces in a local newsletter. 

Group activities are at the heart of any U3A’s activities and we continued to provide an extensive programme of different types of group activities. Most group activities took place in a hired venue, a group leader’s home or, for our walking groups, in the local countryside.  A small number of groups have continued to meet online as this best meets the wishes of the group leader and members.  Several new groups were set up during the year covering a diverse range of activities like Backgammon, the English Legal System, Health and Wellbeing, History – Rogues, Robbers and Radicals, Music Band, Canasta, Run for Fun and Bridge - Beginners Plus. 

The Travel & Tourism team ran a full and very popular programme of outings for members.  These included both day trips to places like Dover Castle and Hatfield House as well as longer trips further afield to places like the Isle of Man and Hauts-de-France.  The Theatre group, which started last year, has continued to arrange trips to a wide range of theatre productions. 

Monthly meetings, where an external speaker gives a talk, and coffee mornings were enjoyed by members throughout the year.  In addition, members also enjoyed The Members Talk, which is a new monthly series of talks by Camberley U3A members which started this year. 

During the year, our first evening in-house activity – a barn dance – was held and was a great success. Our in-house IT system continues to underpin the effective management of all of our functions.  More members are also taking advantage of being able to pay fees online. 

Our U3A is wholly dependent on members volunteering to take on various roles such as running a group and helping with group activities, running outings, working as a trustee or in one of the support teams looking after group activities such as timetable and venues, membership support, finance, IT support and communications.  Many thanks to all volunteers for all their contributions over the past year.
