Hi Sel,

I think the nearest branch to you is Shrewsbury, you could always start up a branch if you want to.

Contact RHQ if you feel it would help.

Cheers,
Joe.

There used to be a Birmingham Branch RWFCA some years back the Hon secretarys name I can't think of at this present time, get on to RHQ Wrexham on 01978 316189 and speak to Major Arthur Ellingham he will give you all the "Gen" on the old Birmingham Branch RWFCA.

Good Luck for the Future

Hello,
The Birmingham branch of the RWFCA closed many years ago. The old second battalion in the Great War were known as the Birmingham fusiliers. Some 75% of the second of this period were from "Brum"
