Achievements and Performance

	SORP reference
Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole.	Para 1.20	The charity continues to uphold the principles of the Third Age Trust i.e. the advancement, education, health and well- being of people no longer in full time employment. Sheffield u3a (Su3a) achieves its aims by supporting and encouraging members to form interest groups usually on a peer-to- peer learning basis and also by facilitating events which are open to all members. During 2024 our membership level showed a steady increase finally hitting 3,000 by the end of September. The trustees accept that each year will see a loss of members at year-end, so recruitment of new members will always be a priority. The aim is for a slow but sustained increase in membership particularly amongst those who have recently retired. Promotional leaflets were sent to all Sheffield libraires and to various other organisations. However, since the inception of our public facing Facebook page it has become clear that we can maintain and grow our membership without staging one-off publicity events which are costly in terms of time and effort. We will continue to take advantage of ad hoc events such as when our music groups perform, to publicise Su3a. During the year our IT team developed and implemented a new membership system which is far more user friendly for our volunteer membership team. There have been some teething troubles but most of these have now been ironed out by dint of hard work on the part of our IT team. We held two meetings for new members during the year and our General Coordinator used the information gleaned from both new and existing members to proactively encourage the start-up of new groups. We also held a meeting for all group coordinators which was well attended and gave the trustees the opportunity to alert members to changes within the organisation and to consult them on future plans.

In addition to maintaining all its group and other activities and its relationship with the two Sheffield Universities, Su3a Has continued to develop and update policies to ensure consistent decision making and good governance. Governance continues to be an area of focus for the trustees and the work which was anticipated to be concluded in 2024 was delayed due to the implementation of the new Members computer system and the need to retrain volunteers. This will be continued during 2025. Su3a now has a trustee responsible for environmental issues and groups will be encouraged to adopt the guidance. In summary Sheffield u3a continues to be a solid, well-run organisation with wellconsidered aims and policies.
