youth hostel membership
Our U3A now has Group Membership of the Youth Hostels Association. This entitles any U3A group (defined as a minimum of 5 members) to stay at any youth hostel at member rates, a saving of £3 per person per night. Our current membership runs until the end of the year and may be renewed if it is sufficiently used. Twelve Fellwanderers will be youth hostelling at the end of April, but these days you don’t necessarily have to walk or cycle to stay at a hostel. They are open to all.
Further details from Margaret Evans, tel.01539 730406.
