The Barnack and District branch has approximately
65 members and meets about 6 times a year. our aim is to raise money in a
social and enjoyable way, in order to help those who have served their
country and are now suffering hardship; this help extends to war
widows (and widowers) and their dependants.
There are two grades of
membership, ordinary and associate. Anyone may join as an associate
member, whereas ordinary members are required to have served in the armed
forces or associate services. Both grades of membership currently
cost £7.50 a year. Our varied meetings and social events usually
take place at the Millstone, although we also arrange lectures, suppers,
visits to service establishments and local places of general
interest. We also, of course, play a leading role in the parishes on
Remembrance Day.
New members are always welcome. |
