New HIU3A visit to see My Fair Lady

Two visits in one!

We're going to see the 2.30 performance of My Fair Lady on Saturday 18th July at the Chichester Festival Theatre. We've arranged a group ticket price of £54 per member.

We've also made a group booking for a backstage tour of the theatre at £14 per member. The tour starts at 10.30am on the same day. Booking for the two events is separate. You can join either or both. Note, however, that tour places are limited.

Neither price includes transport. For more details about the events including transport suggestions, and to book your place click/tap here for My Fair Lady and here for the backstage tour.

The terms of the group booking mean we have to pay for places in March even though the events don't take place until July. Booking for both events will therefore close on 20th March - the day after Thursday's monthly meeting - and you will need to confirm your booking by making payment before 26th March.

HIU3A memberships are coming due

Memberships are due for renewal on April 1st and can be renewed from now on. The fee is £15 for full members and £10 for associate members.

Our preferred and best way to renew is online paying by card. Follow the simple instructions here. You can make a single payment covering two members if that's appropriate.

Alternatively you can renew in person at the monthly meeting on Thursday March 19th by card or cash. Or, if necessary, by post. Send a cheque payable to 'Hayling Island u3a' or cash with member name and SAE to:

The Membership Secretary
c/o 18 St Marys Road
Hayling Island
PO11 9BY

Renewing online by card is the quickest and most reliable way and saves both me and our treasurer a lot of time. Be assured that we do not see your card details, only your details and the amount you paid.

Your early attention is always appreciated. Unless paying by card, please allow a few days for processing.

Thank you,

Peter Haskell
HIU3A Membership Secretary

  • A cream tea which will be served to us on the 3.00 p.m. train.

This time, our visit has been kindly subsidised by Julie, Bob and the committee - otherwise the price would have been in the range £50 to £60.
