Scams again
The ‘near do wells’ are at it again.
Watch out for ‘nhs’ invites for a Covid vaccination where you are offered the jab but ‘need’ to fill in your bank details to confirm its you. Its a scam ! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-55563748

Message from the chair
Hello all
I hope that however you are spending the Christmas break it is a peaceful and happy time for you and yours.
Now as we approach 2021 many things U3A wise remain uncertain, but I am sure like me you are hopeful that the Covid vaccine will be the game changer in ultimately enabling us all to get on with our lives in a more normal way. As part of that, whilst we currently do not have anything whatsoever indicating a possible timescale for reopening a full range of U3A activities, I am hopeful it will be possible in time and we ‘just’ need to be patient, difficult though I know that is.
In the meantime I miss you all and wish every one of you a happy and peaceful New Year. All my very best wishes to every one of you – I hope that 2021 is good to and for you
Stay safe and take care all.
Dot B.

As promised last week, here is a Christmas ‘Special’ quiz from Norman. Hope you all have a ‘break’ from the doom and gloom. Stay safe and hopefully we will meet you all soon.
Quiz night – Dec 18
Digital camera group – 2021
Ever optimistic, here is our schedule for 2021.

Christmas Concert online Sun 20th Dec @ 4pm
Some of you may remember our daughter Maria whom you supported so well when she ran the London marathon for Alzeimers research last year. During lockdown, she has managed to keep her choir The Great Yorkshire Chorus rehearsing online and they have now been able, with masks and social distancing, to film their Christmas concert in Victoria Hall, Saltaire.
You can watch it free from 4pm on Sunday 20th December onwards, on the following link

They are raising money for Bradford food banks but the concert itself is free to watch. Hope you enjoy it.
Happy Christmas from Brian & Wanda Leach
