Since summer 2022 we have been sharing the Teesdale monthly meeting at Enterprise House, Harmire Estate in Barnard Castle. The group closed for a while due to the health of the Barnard Castle leader but has restarted late 2024. The original day is no longer suitable so a poll of members was taken to establish the most popular day.
From January 2025 the genealogy meetings will be held at Enterprise House as usual but on the second Thursday of the month 13.30 - 15.30. The room has been booked for the whole of 2025. As usual Alan will email reminders and the topic for the meeting.
This is a joint group between Teesdale and Bishop Auckland. Members of either u3a can attend these group meetings but must be a full member of either Teesdale or Barnard Castle u3a to take part in this, or any other, interest group activity.
