Pitlochry & District

Welcome to Pitlochry and District u3a

The u3a primarily brings together people who have finished working full time or raising their family to develop interests and to continue learning in informal and supportive environments.

The focus is on sharing and learning from each other.

There is no lower age limit for membership and people who are working part time may join.

We offer a range of activities, catering for a wide range of interests. All are lead by members.

We hold monthly meetings and events which are open to all members between September and May with a break over Christmas and New Year. These normally take place on the third Wednesday of the month.

Our Programme for 2026-27 is currently being finalised - please check back later for details.
