GROUP ETIQUETTE GUIDE
| Attend regularly | Only join in a group if you are able to attend regularly (allowing for illness, holiday etc). There is no requirement to attend all sessions, but you are expected to come as often as you can. |
| Apologies | As a matter of courtesy, please make every effort to contact the Group Leader if you are unable to attend a group meeting. |
| Lack of attendance | If you miss 3 consecutive sessions without advising the Group Leader, you may lose your place, especially if the group has a waiting list. |
| Leaving a group | If you decide to withdraw from a group at any time during the year, advise the Group Leader so that your place can be offered to someone on the waiting list. |
Communications to
group members
Communications to group members are sent out by email. These may come from the Group leader, Groups Co-ordinator or members of the committee. It can happen that when a large number of emails go out, email provider software sometimes thinks it is SPAM of JUNK. It is adviseable to check your JUNK folder to see if any emails from U3A are in it and move them to your inbox.
