This is a group formed in January 2018.

Meets 2nd and 4th Thursday of the month at 2 p.m. at Uphall Community Education Centre.

We are a group up for 'having a go'!

There are (at present) spare ukuleles for people to borrow and try out. We learn basic chords and play and sing songs together. And have fun!

No musical knowledge or experience is necessary - do feel welcome to join us.
