Brief History of Settle District U3A

Settle District U3A was conceived by Frank Pedley in 2001. He placed an advertisement in the Craven Herald and subsequently called a meeting in Victoria Hall, Settle. At this meeting a steering committee, chaired by Frank, was formed from which the Settle District U3A became a possibility. The first meeting was held on 25 May at 23 Duke Street, Settle. After a year of preparatory work an inaugural meeting was called in Victoria Hall, Settle, and the organisation formally came into existence on 12 September 2002. At this meeting, the steering committee became the first committee of the Settle District U3A. 64 members were enrolled, and 14 study groups were formed.
