Travel Desk

The Brecon u3a Travel Desk is managed by the following team

Jenny Thomas

Entertaining, Educational, Exciting

The Travel Desk is ‘open for business’ 10 - 10.30 am every Thursday before the morning presentation and again just afterwards, noon - 12.15.pm. Other than that, if you have any query, we can be contacted by email. Please click on one of our names above.

The ‘Travel Desk’ team, are always open to suggestions for outings. We endeavour to cover a wide range of interests to reflect the many and varied activities of Brecon U3A members. To assist you in making plans, we will try to produce a programme of proposed trips every six months. Details of proposed trips will be available on Thursdays from the Travel Desk, on the Thursday Notices and here on the Brecon u3a web site.

Terms and Conditions

  1. To comply with U3A Trust legal requirements, we are only allowed to take U3A members (from any branch) on our trips. The one exception is that if members require a Carer to travel with them, that person need not be a U3A member. However, in such circumstances, the Travel Desk team and Committee members need to be given their names and any other relevant information.

2. Cancellations: We regret that we cannot guarantee to refund the cost of any trip for which you have paid if the money has already been paid over, or is committed, to the relevant organization. This applies to both day trips and residential events. We hope, though, that you would make every effort to find a replacement for yourself. If necessary, the Travel Desk will give what assistance they can.

3. We need to try and cover the costs of each trip - there is no magic ‘kitty’ available to us. The cost of the trip is always calculated on a certain of number of people booking. If we fail to reach the optimum number, the trip will be cancelled before any payments are due. We are not a registered travel agency - just volunteers from our branch. As such, we cannot offer any form of holiday insurance for cancellations, etc. Those booked on residential events may wish to make enquiries elsewhere about holiday cancellation cover.
