Open Meetings

Open Meetings are held on the morning of the 2nd Wednesday each month from September to May at the Community Centre, Albert Road, Eyemouth.

A guest speaker is invited each month and non members are welcome to attend to get a flavour of what the East Berwickshire U3A can offer.  Enjoy a chat with the members over a cup of coffee and hear one of the interesting talks from the varied programme.
