War Widows Celebrate 90th Birthdays
The War Widows gathered in the Gerrale room for the first time in a long time this week (due to Covid Restrictions). It was also the first time they could celebrate the birthdays of their members who had turned 90 in 2020, 2021 & 2022 (so far)!
Happy (belated) Birthday to Ruth Kennedy, Shirley Christie, Betty Jennings, Kath Macklin, Joan Staples & Marie Watson. Here are some of the birthday ladies, pictured with President Norma Arden.
About the Cronulla Sutherland District War Widows’ Guild Club
AWWNSW has a network of Guild and Social Clubs throughout Sydney and New South Wales, providing a place for members to meet and join with other war widows and members who have been through similar experiences.
In line with COVID-19 guidelines, many of the clubs have social events such as bus trips and luncheons as well as their meetings. Guest speakers are invited to attend meetings to speak on topics of interest to members. The Club Coordinators provide regular updates from AWWNSW, keeping members up-to-date on AWWNSW information as well as the various benefits available to them through agencies, such as the Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA).
