The WRAAF Branch consists of a group of ex-WRAAF’s who meet every two months (January, March, May, July, September and November) in Brisbane, usually on the second Saturday of the month.

We are always glad to welcome new members at our meetings, we aim to enjoy each other’s company over morning tea, have a short meeting an

We are a non profit Organisation dedicated to the enhancement of facilities to aid the well being of all past and present WRAAF and Affiliates.

Where we Meet
