Riviera Travel Affinity Scheme
If you are booking a holiday directly through Riviera Travel please mention our u3a (Solihull 198). Once the holiday is taken, u3a will receive a donation from the company.
Riviera Travel operates the “Affinity” Charity Scheme with all u3a’s across the country. Riviera Travel will donate 10% of the total basic cost of your holiday as a charitable donation to the Third Age Trust who retain 10% of that donation and forward the remainder to Solihull u3a. Any holiday booked with Riviera Travel is eligible.
How it works:
Make a booking by contacting Riviera Travel directly, simply mention you want to claim Affinity Commission for Solihull (198) u3a. As there are many separate Solihull u3as, mentioning our National number, 198, should help them allocate it to us.
If you make your booking online, you must contact Riviera Travel within 24 hours of making the booking either by emailing affinity@rivieratravel.co.uk or calling 01283 523 470 with your booking reference and our name, Solihull (198) u3a, as the Affinity Partner.
For more details see Riviera Travel Affinity Scheme.
Please Note : The commission payment is not payable on bookings made through a travel agent or a third party booking site.
To encourage members to use this affinity scheme, then providing the amount received is greater than your annual membership, we will waive your subscription for the following year.
So, book a holiday and enjoy Solihull u3a for free!
