Mill Hill University Of The Third Age
Learn, Laugh, Live.
About Us
The Mill Hill u3a is open to retired and semi-retired people who come together and learn together, not for qualifications but for its own reward: the sheer joy of discovery! In regular times, regular meetings are held once a month at Hartley Hall on Mill Hill Broadway. During COVID restrictions we invited our members to fortnightly Zoom talks by a wide variety of external speakers. We have now returned to normal, with our meetings again at Hartley Hall.
We have over 40 different interest groups where members may share their skills and life experiences – the learners teach and the teachers learn, and there is no distinction between them. Since COVID lockdown, most of these groups are functioning normally. See our ‘Groups’ page for the latest information.
You can read more about us on our ‘About’ pages.

Music: Classical unsung composers by Vimeo
Over a period of a few hundred years, only a small number of Western classical composers have made it to the musical “mainstream”. Hundreds of accomplished composers, (“unsung composers”) whose works rival those of Bach, Chopin, Ravel or Dvorak or took a new direction in music, have fallen through the cracks of time, known only within their home countries or considered mere footnotes in musical history.
