General News

  • Foreign Currency Collection - we have found a company that will exchange foreign currency for cash which we will use to help fund Great Yarmouth u3a. If  you any foreign currency at home, please bring it along to the next monthly meeting. It doesn't matter whether it is still legal tender or not, for example French Francs, German Deutsche Marks or Spanish Pesetas are all acceptable.
