Peer Support Groups

Introduction

What are Peer Support Groups (PSGs)?
PSGs provide opportunities for u3a committee members in their various roles and interest group leaders to come together, share experiences and learn from each other.

Scope
There are well over 200 types of interest group and different committee roles in Notts u3as, so we have plenty to go at.

Costs
Venue costs should be borne by the host u3a. There should be no costs to the Notts Network. Every u3a will benefit many times over from the opportunities to attend PSGs hosted by other U3As.

​PSGs vs Workshops
PSGs should be relatively informal meetings hosted by individual u3as. They may only meet once for a couple of hours, if that is sufficient for their purpose. Workshops are more formal one day or half day events and are organized by the Network or by the u3a at county, regional or national level.

Information
