Photography Group – 1st Monday of Each Month

Takes place the first Monday of each month – 10 am to 12 noon  (For Members of Southport u3a only)

The group is given a monthly challenge, normally to take photographs fitting a given theme, using any level of equipment, from a complex camera to a simple phone.  The themes are designed to get the members thinking about what they are taking and have included subjects such as light and shade, panoramic and low viewpoint.

The results are reviewed at the monthly meeting and constructive feedback given.

We also look at the technical aspects of photography, understanding our photographic equipment and the use of digital editing.  Camera workshops are held, to help members overcome issues using their kit.  Also, practical sessions and field trips are arranged, which allow members to work together and gain inspiration from each other.

Booking essential.  Learn more about u3a HERE

Postnatal Pilates is a gentle, low-impact way to support your body’s recovery after childbirth.

Classes focus on rebuilding core strength, improving posture, strengthening the pelvic floor, and helping to heal abdominal separation (diastasis recti). Pilates can also ease the back, neck, and hip discomfort that often comes with feeding, lifting, and carrying your baby. Alongside the physical benefits, the mindful movement and focused breathing can help you feel calmer, more balanced, and more connected to your body again.
