Achievemerts andperform•nce Thè University of the Third Age in Carnbridgg IU3ACI looked forward in 2024 to buSlding on the prèwous years ￿rfOrn￿nce in t8rns of increasing our rnemb8rship numbers to be doser to the 'pre40￿d years,. The upward trend of the previous year continued and by the oryj of the year the membership numbèr totalled 2.554. This growth was attributsble to a numb8r of factors but, as in 2023, notably, to a much more proactive approach to marketing and pu￿1c1ty. Given th8 focus on increasing membetship, Counul nevertheless took the difficult but unavThdable decision to increase the subscnption again to £110 for the 202425 academic year. D8SPite 50rnè expects"ons to ihe contrary. thi5 inciea58 in subs¢riptK)n did not reduce the amount received from voluntary donations . in fact quite the opposite. Such t)nations are very much appreciated and also add to the sum on which we can daim Gift Aid. tt 15 a positfvo measwe of how hvJhly our memb&rs value their membership of U3AC and the v8riOU5 benefits it provides. As ever. we Iso ¢onsid8r8d furth8r andloi continued othar income4enerating options and were eased with th8 Outcome of letting Bridge Stroet preriiise5 to a language school during the JulylAugUSt period. This was particularty successful in 2024 and had the additional benefit ol providing moro flexibilty for stsff working and taking 5thnè holiday ovor that perifxl. To provkle sorne alternative continuity of acti￿l￿.es for rnembers there was 8 goDd prOgraMr￿ of off4ite Summer acts"vth"es organis8d wth the help of volunts8r5, which was popular and is likely to set pattern for futurè summer programmes. Members continued to bènefit from a good, range ol courses anol actiit￿5 in 20241391 atth8 me of allocation, up from 375 in 20231, offeriw an Inc￿aSed number of plac8s17,598 cf. 7,268 in 20231. Course delivery continued to be face-to-face, by Zoom or In a hybrid format. r8flecting a5 far as po$sib1e th¢ prgt8rences of tutors and thtr axpectations of members. Tha Courses Comrnitt88 continued actively to encourage new tutor5 to offer their to prO￿lde support for all tutors through Tutor Forums, the mentoring $eNi¢&. ete.. As wdl as analysing mengr feedback on courses and the high-18vel data it accèssaé during the year. Some mernbers are inevilably disappointed when the cours8 they p8rticularfy want 15 oversubscribe£l. but al the initsal allwAts'on 96.8% of members secured their first choiee. U3AC's trjo lectu￿ senes once again offered rnembets a dlsb'ngui$hed roster ol speakers an¢J a rich variety of subjects. Meml)ers could choose to attend the W8dn&sday l¢¢tures in person or Zoom, but at the moment the Norah BO￿ lectures are usually Zccrn. The incrtasing number of lactures posted on the website provides an exceptional archive for mambfrrs to enjoy at thglr 18isure. We apweciate that the U￿c is very fortunato to be able to invite such a Gcnsistently wde range of local expert speakers a￿ bmlliro to gNe their time to expand ￿ kn￿￿e¢39e and 188ming opportunitie5 of our membèrs. The fomiat for the Ron Gray Conf8rencè was Changed from p￿V￿)uS years. It was an alklay meety'ng and was held at Ernrnanuel College, Whe￿ Ron Gray was a fellow. as well as bein9 U3AC lecturer.

Llniversity of the Thlrd Age In Cambridge {ClOI Strat8gkc Report It is very clear from the surv8ys we havè undertaken over the years, that members value highly the Social inter8ttion that mèmbarship prowdès. The cs)portunities lor this have Increased in recent year5 With the piovTrson of a designated Social arèa. with coffee machino. and an oulsKle terrace al our Bridge Street premises. We know that this Is used largely by those who attend the many dasses on site 8ndlor those wishing to m88t fri8nd5 andlor briThJ a snack lunch whilst betsvoen dasses or shopping elc. However.

Some smler classes also tak8 place in memb8rs' hous85. Such activities include a vafued inherent social ci)mponent However. Tru$lee$ decided to ty to Increase awareness of the Bridge St facilities by appointing a Trustee wrth this weryfic responsibility. This initiativ8 is in rts early stag8s and will n•8(I to bo ￿￿Owed during 2025. Our Cultural and Social Actiwlies Committee organisad a very wide varkety of w5its. ranging Ircm the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford for a Bruegel and Rubens eKhibition providing 8 rare treat to ew fragile. rarely seen drawings. to visiting KeSvedon Hatch Secret Bunker thorou9hly recornmended and Ihoughtrovoking visit.

As part of our regular bu1￿1r@ rnaintenance prcgramma, wa wore informed in October109.30 am Thursday moming, 17th October) that there was an outbreak of Leg￿￿ella in the water system el the gndge Street premises. The Chair of the Trustees, in con8ultstion with the Secr8tsry and thè TreaSU￿r. look the Immediate deusion to close the premises until further notice, which Meant no f&e-to-face Classes could continue the￿. The Chair Immediately informed all U3AC members of the $ituats"on. As this element of the building infra$tru¢lure is the prime responsibility of the Landlord, Magdalene C￿lege. thrO￿h its Agent Icheffinsl. several meebngs took place with the Agent, and a numbèr of measur6s were put In pla¢e lo rectify siluats"on.

ThroughouL members were updated regularfy by the Chair who received several apprecith.ve messages ol support In response. It was an important leaming exp&r￿n¢$ which tèsted our ability and systems to keep the business going during this loss of premise$. We continue to revw thi5 emergency Incident. and, on the whole. have ¢oncluded that the .10$$ of business. was minimised, bec8use 5tsff. Trustees and voluntsers all moved into action and followed the rel8vanl procadure5. However. there is no room lor compLgcenty about such unexpected and serious situats'on5, and a small Working Group h85 been established under the Mte-chair of Ihe Council lo examine, with the Agents.
