For U3A groups, libraries, OLLI and care homes
Virtual Travel Club
A free armchair travel club, ready to run: 8 sessions of about 45 minutes, one country each. Every session has a large-print pack with a plan for the leader, a quiz for the big screen, a recipe to try at home and a stamp for every member's card. Nothing to sign up for.
How a session works
- Welcome (5 min). Find the country on the map together. Who has been there?
- The story (10 min). The facts at a glance and three moments from its history.
- At the table (10 min). Two famous dishes. Bring a small taste if your kitchen can help.
- Say it like a local (5 min). Three phrases, everyone together.
- Quiz (10 min). On the big screen, one question at a time. You reveal the answers; nobody is scored.
- Talk and stamp (5 min). Conversation starters, then everyone stamps or signs their card.
The pack has the same plan for the leader, filled in for each country: which moments, dishes and phrases.
For memory care, use the gentle quiz (two answers to choose from) and the conversation page.

A table for your club (optional)
Members who like a friendly competition can join a private group with a code and nicknames only. Every trip and game they play at home earns miles for the club table.
