Visits

Availability: Any member can attend

Group leaders and contact details

We arrange occasional visits to places on behalf of all Hayling Island u3a members. You do not have to join the Visits 'group' to go on one of our trips.

Bookings for visits are limited and - because of nationally negotiated insurance - available only to u3a members. We take bookings on a first-come first-served basis, but (because of issues we've had in the past) we do not recognise a booking until we've received your payment. That means we cannot start taking bookings until we have calculated the cost to members.

Please note that no refunds will be made unless the ticket can be reallocated from the waiting list or the person who cannot go can find someone to use their ticket.

If visits are unders-ubscribed we reserve the right to offer places to members of other local u3a Groups in order to avoid making a loss. Naturally Hayling Island u3a members have priority.

The easiest way for you to book a place on a visit is to go to the visit page (click the visit name shown under 'Forthcoming events') and follow the instructions shown under 'Your bookings' at the end of the description. If 'Your bookings' doesn't appear it means we are still calculating the cost of the trip so can't yet take bookings.

You can also book visits at the monthly meetings. We'll have a table set up to take bookings for visits. You can pay with:

  • Contactless debit or credit card
  • Cheque or
  • Cash

You can also:

  • Make a bank transfer via the internet (NB we are now asking you to use the main HIU3A account for payments instead of the 'Visits' account)
  • Make an online payment by card (links provided when you make a booking)
  • Deliver cheques to Richard and Jan North

You need to login to the members' area to see the bank account details and the North's address. Click here to do that now - you will be returned to this page automatically.

Visit start times are usually 8:30am from HIADS returning between 5:30pm to 6:30pm depending on traffic. Other pick up points are: United Reform Church, Hollow Lane; Opposite Co-op/Tournerbury Lane; Bus stop opposite New Cut, North of the Esso garage.
