The Royal Air Forces Association aka RAF Association or RAFA, is a British registered charity that provides care & support to serving and retired members of the RAF & Air Forces of the British Commonwealth and to their dependents. RAFA has a clear objective: to help sustain a resilient and empowered RAF community, including serving personnel, RAF veterans and their families. We aim to reduce social loneliness and isolation through contact by helping all generations to remain active, thriving and valued members of their local communities. RAFA HQ is based in Leicester, with RAFA Branches across the UK & Overseas. The RAFA Moray Branch Committee & Members meet regularly each month at the Ex-Servicemen's Club in Elgin with Minutes of meetings recorded. Every year, with other RAFA Branches, we organise a Wings Appeal to raise funds from Sales and Public Donations at various locations i.e. supermarkets & fayres across Moray. Funds collected are banked & transferred to RAFA HQ.
