Guidelines for members partaking in the social activities.

The main purpose of day trips is to have an enjoyable fun day out with other members, perhaps learning something new along the way. If you’ve been somewhere nice yourself we’re always grateful for suggestions. All members are welcome, whether alone or with a group. Each trip is different and you will be informed of any requirements prior to booking including accessibility.

It is expected that members behave in a courteous manner and treat fellow members respectfully. We suggest that you get to the coach stop early and leave the front seats by the door for the organiser. Reservation of seats is not permitted. It is your responsibility to safeguard your belongings and heed any instructions. Please carry your ICE (In Case of Emergency) card

PICK-UPS

The Hough Green stop is next to Redlands Close, the Delamere St stop is opposite the new health centre and Sainsbury’s is at Caldy Valley Gt Boughton. Please leave your car in Halfords car park and not Sainsbury’s.

PAYMENT

At the time of booking, by cheque or credit card, payable to Chester U3A Social Account. Catering arrangements will be given at time of booking. Inform the organiser asap if you are unable to attend. There is usually a waiting list
