THE next meeting of the Wear and Tees group of the University of the Third Age, for people over 50, takes place on May 15, when Linda Conlon, chief executive of Life Interactive World, in Newcastle, will give a talk.
The meeting, at the Eden Theatre, in Bishop Auckland Town Hall, starts at 10.30am.
Norma Robinson, secretary of the group, said: "We only started our group last August with a committee of six, but we now have 53 members.
"Our projects cover art, music, poetry, walking, theatre, reading, literature, and current affairs, while our very strong local history group is currently studying Methodism in the Wear Valley area.
"In June, and in conjunction with Bishop Auckland College, we are starting a course on reading and literature."
