Our website, www.u3ac.org.uk, gives full details of the organisation – how we are run, our history, our constitution, policies and our annual report and accounts. It is the place to go for up-to-date information about our courses, lectures, social and cultural activities, privacy policy, public liability insurance etc. The annual subscription The annual subscription for 2021–2022 is £95. New members pay an additional enrolment fee of £5. A reduced rate subscription is available for members in receipt of pension credit. To qualify for the reduced subscription of 20% of the full rate (£19), contact the Office with evidence of your entitlement. If you enrol online, you will be refunded the difference when the relevant documentation has been received. The annual membership subscription contributes to the administration and accommodation costs of U3AC and is non-refundable. It is not a payment for individual classes, lectures or activities. Applying for courses For existing members Applications should be submitted via the website, www.u3ac.org.uk, no later than 13 August. Please note: If you apply for only one course, and that course has a limited number of places, we cannot guarantee that you will be allocated a place. It is therefore advisable to list an alternative. 1. Log on to the website using your username and password (if you have forgotten your password, click Forgotten Password). 2. Click 'Course selection'. Select the courses you want to apply for. You can choose a maximum of 6: • Make sure their times do not clash. • If two are on the same day, ensure that you have time to get from one to the next. • Rank your courses in order of preference with your first choice at the top of the list. You can change the order of preference by dragging the courses you have selected up and down the list. 3. If you wish, enter an alternative course in the right-hand column. The alternative should be either: similar to the course in the first column and you don’t mind which one you attend, including the same course which is offered both on Zoom and face-to-face or at the same time as the course in the first column. 4. Click the ‘Submit course choices’ button at the bottom of the screen. 5. Pay the annual subscription, and any additional course fees via PayPal, using your credit card or debit card (you do not need to have a PayPal account). 6. Once payment has been made via PayPal you will be taken back to the U3AC website to complete the payment and submit your application. For new members You must first register on the website and set up your account: 1. Click Join U3AC on the homepage. 2. Complete the two parts of the online registration form (‘Your info’ and ‘Additional Information’). Don’t forget to click the Submit button at the bottom of the Additional Information form. 3. Then apply for up to 6 courses, as described in steps 2–6 for existing members above. Any existing or new member who needs help completing the online form, should telephone the Office on 01223 321587 and a member of staff will be pleased to talk you through the process. If you do not have access to the internet, the Office can send you a paper copy of the New member registration and course application form. 2 When to apply You can join U3AC at any time and apply for courses. If your course choices are submitted by 13 August, they will be included in the annual allocation process, which uses a computer algorithm. If they are submitted after the allocation process, some courses will be full, so it is best to check first with the Office. If you have made your application by 13 August, you will be sent your membership

The study focuses on the relationship between the HGP, the biomedical model of health, and globalisation. It seeks to examine the ways in which the HGP shapes ways of thinking about health; the influence globalisation has on this process; and the implications of this for smaller nations such as Australia. Adopting a critical perspective grounded in political economy, the study provides a largely structuralist analysis of the emergent health context of the HGP. This perspective, which embraces an insightful nexus drawn from the literature on biomedicine, globalisation and the HGP, offers much utility by which to explore the basis of biomedical dominance, in particular, whether it is biomedicine’s links to the capitalist infrastructure, or its inherent efficacy and efficiency, that sustains the biomedical paradigm over “other” or non-biomedical health approaches.
