Knutsford u3a Resources
We have a wide range of equipment available for groups to borrow ranging from projectors, screens, laptops, PA systems etc. to a document laminator. The use of Audio – Visual effects during meetings can often enhance the subject being discussed. With this in mind, Knutsford u3a has put together a selection of equipment which Activity Groups can borrow. Most people find that after a small amount of training, the various items are easy to connect and operate.
Typical applications are:
- Showing DVDs on a large screen or TV with sound
- Showing PowerPoint slides using a computer and projector or TV
- Showing 35mm slides
- Using PA equipment to ensure that speakers at meetings can be heard.
If you want to learn more about the equipment and its potential to enhance your meetings or to have some training on its use, please contact Robert Watson (contact details are below).
The following equipment is available:
- HP Laptop Computers

Each piece of equipment is supplied with the necessary leads to connect it to other AV items. With the growing use of tablets we have added leads which allow connections to digital projectors and most modern TVs. To meet the safety requirements of the various premises we use, all our mains electrical equipment is regularly PAT tested.
Group Leaders wishing to borrow equipment should email info@knutsfordu3a.co.uk – giving as much notice as possible.
