u3a Quiz Group

We all know how important it is, as we grow older, to keep active. Exercise, be it a daily walk, a visit to the gym or a Joe Wicks workout, are essential for our health and well being. Whilst it's good to keep as physically fit as we can, it's also important to keep the brain active....and  a quiz does just that...and it's fun!
​Experts say that knowing  obscure  facts is good for our mental health and that playing trivia games can-quote - "provide a dopamine rush much like gambling, without the negative effects ". How about that!
​​
So why not come along to our quiz and exercise your brain! Join up with others to make a team and answer a few questions. I can assure you that you will be surprised at what you do know....and anyway, we learn more when we don't know all the answers. 
We cover a variety of topics, and the style varies from Question and Answer, to Multi-choice and sometimes a Picture or music round. There are no prizes - it's just for fun.

We meet on the third Wednesday each month (except in August  when we take a break ) between 2pm and 4pm in St George's Church Hall - click here to find this venue. Free parking is available at the hall.
You will receive a warm welcome and a hot drink during the interval. 

New members are very welcome to come along.
