Members with health issues must not participate in group meetings or visits without first informing the organiser/Group Leader of those issues. Points to consider will include general ill-health or disease, cognitive function problems, or physical limitations regarding the senses, mobility, balance and co-ordination.
The organiser/GL can then assess what adjustments may be made to facilitate the member concerned being able to participate in the group activity/visit.
Members need to be aware that failure to inform the organiser/GL about any health issues may invalidate U3A insurance. As a consequence, where the member concerned causes injury or damage to a third party or their property, they are likely to be liable for any resulting costs.
