Wessex branch
Welcome to the Wessex Branch of The Western Front Association
Members and non-members of The Western Front Association are equally welcome. Any new visitors are guaranteed a friendly atmosphere and a warm welcome from a group of like-minded enthusiasts.
Meetings are held on the first Saturday of the month at 2.00pm for a 2.30pm start.
Everyone attending a branch meeting is invited to make a recommended entrance donation of £4.00
The meeting venue at Pimperne Village Hall has ample onsite parking available.
There is a book raffle at each meeting which helps support the branch charitable objectives, principally, but not exclusively, in the Wessex region.
We look forward to welcoming you to our branch meetings.
