A New Website
The website's layout has substantially changed, as we use a different system, WordPress, to keep it up to date. A national u3a team of largely amateur members and very clever experts have been busy for over a year to allow all of us to migrate our existing websites to this system.
WordPress powers over 30% of all websites across the planet. and makes it easy to manage important aspects of the website without needing to know about programming. A group of local members has been finalising the details of this transition over the past few months and this is the result. If you have any comments or suggestions, please let us know by contacting the Web Administration Team
From the Web Administration team: We are Irene Cauley, Liz Hunter, Theresa McVeigh and Mairead McGouran. Queries or requests sent to the ‘Web Administration Team’ will be answered by one of us and we will always include the words "Belfast u3a' in the subject box of the email, so you will know it is one of us!
Many thanks to Campbell Morrison for all the unpaid hours he put in as the architect of this website and to Mary-Rose McBrien, his assistant. Also to other members of the Administration Team who contributed to the content of the website.
