Sub-Branch Incorporation

The Sub Branch is currently working to change its legal status from an Unincorporated Association to incorporate as a Company Limited by Guarantee. More Information is available here

At the November meeting the members voted on and passed the final motions required for the incorporation of the sub branch. We are now waiting for all the legal requirements to be completed and hopefully this will all be completed early next year.

City of Albury RSL Sub-Branch

 The City of Albury RSL Sub Branch operates from a refurbished house at the western end of Wilson street in Albury

    The main aim of the Sub Branch is to look after the well being & welfare of ex-service and service men and women in Albury and surrounding areas.

   To this end we encourage any ex-service and service people and/or their partners to drop into the office and have a chat to one of the volunteers. We may not always be able to answer all questions straight away but can generally get the answer within a few days.

    Of course you can always just drop in for a bit of social chat and have a cuppa, the water is always on the boil, and the volunteers like the company.

    The Sub Branch is run by a dedicated group of volunteers and we are always looking for more volunteers as we would really like to have the office open for more days, so if you would like to volunteer please come and have a talk to us.

Meetings

    The Sub Branch meets on the 3rd Sunday at 11.00 am in Feb, Mar(AGM), Apr, May, Sept, Oct and Nov in the meeting room at ANZAC House. Most meetings last about an hour and are followed by lunch and drinks. 

Note there are no meetings in Jan, Jun, Jul and Dec.

    The committee meets on the Tuesday before the general meeting.

Pensions

    For information about pensions please call into the office or phone during office hours

Welfare
