We have all been shocked and devastated by the tragic flooding disaster in Valencia and our thoughts are with all those affected and those bravely assisting. As an organisation we wanted to help so we went shopping on your behalf and filled our cars with as much essentials we could manage and that we had been asked to get: sustainable foods, water, milk, toiletries, baby items, cleaning products etc.

Walking in the Jalon valley and surrounding area can be more difficult than you might imagine. For casual walkers used to the Ordnance Survey maps available in the UK, the few local maps can be a great disappointment.

A talk at the October General Assembly by Susie Pearson and Leona on the man trailing dog search and rescue group, Jalon.

Members who attended the October General Assembly enjoyed a very interesting and informative talk by Susie Pearson, a u3a Vall del Pop member and volunteer with the man trailing dog search and rescue team based in Jalon.

u3a Vall del Pop holds two Coffee Mornings each month, where you can join us for a chat, tea/coffee, and cake if you choose.
