Sad News!
Following the unexpected return of her serious illness, Maria Hughes, our current Chair, has sadly passed away. (15th October)
Maria was a stalwart supporter of u3a here in Bridgnorth. As a contributing member she served on the Committee for many years taking on the Activities Coordinator role, the Vice Chair role, followed by the Chair role for the past two years.
In addition, for over ten years, she organised the Gardens Group with numerous outings each summer which also included a week annual Gardens Holiday. She was a keen leader and active member of the Majong Group. In between all this she enjoyed joining the Out & About Group trips.
Our annual nominated Charity benefitted greatly from Maria's input for raffles and plant stalls.
Maria will be greatly missed. We send our condolences to her family and friends.
