40 Years of Bicester u3a

Bicester

Visit to Houses of Parliament 16 September 2011

One of the events arranged to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Bicester u3a was a trip to the Palace of Westminster.

On 16 September 2011, 53 members journeyed to the Houses of Parliament. On arrival they divided into three groups for tours of the building; each tour lasted 75 minutes.


Following the tours, afternoon tea on the terrace overlooking the Thames was hosted by Tony Baldry, our local MP at the time. [Maurice Weir liaised with Mr Baldry’s office.]

On the Terrace: Dorne Crossley, Eileen Ward and Peggy Penfold.
