JOINING THE BIRKENHEAD RSA
There are essentially three categories of membership at the Birkenhead RSA. These are:
- Returned / Service Members
Open to both current or ex service personnel of both New Zealand Forces or those from Commonwealth countries. - Associate Membership
Open to those who have no service history.
You no longer require a sponsor to join the RSA, however there are some conditions that apply. You are informed of these conditions at the time of applying for your membership. - Womens Section
Open to wives / widows or partners of current / ex Birkenhead RSA Service members.
Please note this is a concessionary membership and members cannot vote at RSA AGM or elections.
However voting at the Womens Section AGM is possible.
The above is a guideline only and for more definitive information an applicant should contact the RSA if they require more precise details.
