Join The QCWA Forrest Beach For Friendship, Community And Purpose

Women interested in connecting more with their local community are warmly invited to join the QCWA Forrest Beach Branch.

“We are a warm, friendly group of ladies who are passionate about making a difference, learning together and sharing good company. New members are always welcome, and now is the perfect time to get involved,” said a local member.

The next branch meeting is scheduled for Thursday, 12 June at 9:00am at the QCWA Hall on Palm Street, Forrest Beach. Meetings are held on the second Thursday of every month, beginning at 9:30am following a morning tea catch-up.

“Whether your interest lies in lending a hand to local causes, enjoying social time with others, or learning something new, there is something here for you.”

Throughout the week, the branch hosts a variety of regular activities.

On Monday mornings at 9:00am, Healthy Living sessions offer gentle exercise followed by morning tea and a relaxed opportunity for conversation and connection.

The library, stocked with donated books, is open on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday mornings from 9:00am, where visitors can browse, borrow, or purchase books for a gold coin donation.
While clean, good-condition book donations are welcome, magazines are not accepted at this time.

Each Thursday morning, except on meeting days, Craft Mornings begin at 9:00am. This is a welcoming space to work on creative projects, share ideas, and develop skills, whether participants are experienced crafters or simply curious to learn.

The branch expresses gratitude to the community for supporting recent markets, including purchasing cakes, visiting the library, exploring craft stalls, and browsing pre-loved treasures.

The Annual General Meeting will be held on 20 July 2025. Anyone interested in joining the executive team is encouraged to attend and get involved.
