The u3a celebrated its 40th birthday in 2022. As part of our local celebrations, the Derbyshire network of u3as held a photographic competition open to all members of all the u3as in the County.
The Competition had two sections:
“The Spirit of Derbyshire" and “The Spirit of u3a”
An expert panel judged the pictures for interest, humour and relevance as well as technical quality.
