About the RSL Alice Springs
For more than a century, the Alice Springs RSL has been proudly serving past and present Australian Defence Force personnel, as well as the greater Central Australian community.
The RSL’s spirit of social responsibility strongly supports the well-being, care and commemoration of serving and ex-service Defence members and their dependents.
We are now advancing the design of a iconic new venue for our Military Museum that will help the community, Defence families, veterans and visitors to enjoy and embrace our significant past and will allow us to sustain a future within a modern environment.
Statement of purpose
The RSL was founded in 1916 to provide comradeship and support to Australia’s veterans and their families.
That core mission has never changed but has continued to evolve to meet the needs of each generation of servicemen and women.
We have a branch network that covers Australia and any veteran who seeks help will get it. Serving ADF members and veterans should will be warmly welcomed at their local RSL.
We advocate for the best possible conditions for our serving men and women and for those who have served the nation in the past.
We foster respect and thanks from the nation for all those who have made sacrifices in Australia’s name and we will provide a strong voice on issues of national unity and security.
Aims and Objectives of the league
The ideals and objectives which had characterised the initiation of the first state associations in 1916 were correlated and finally adopted, in the following form, as the aims and objectives of the League:
-
To perpetuate the close ties of friendship created by mutual service in the Australian Defence Force or allied forces, to maintain a proper standard of dignity and honour among all past and present serving members of the Defence Force and to set an example of public spirit and noble-hearted endeavour;
-
To preserve the memory and records of those who suffered and died for Australia;
-
To provide for the sick and wounded and needy among those who have served and their dependents including pensions, medical attention, homes and suitable employment;
-
To inculcate loyalty to the Nation, to guard the good name and preserve the interests and standing of members of the Defence Force; and to promote our policy on national questions.
