Meet Our Leadership
Wello Soldiers - The place to be
Welcome to the Heart of Our Club
Behind every great community initiative, event, and service offered by the Wellington Soldiers Memorial Club stands a dedicated team of leaders. These individuals are not just directors; they are passionate advocates for the welfare and enrichment of our members and the broader Wellington community.
Our Board of Directors is composed of a diverse group of individuals, each bringing their own unique expertise and vision to the table. They work tirelessly, volunteering their time and talents to ensure the Club not only meets but exceeds the expectations of our valued members.
The directors are committed to the Club’s mission of providing a welcoming, inclusive, and vibrant environment where friendships are formed, laughter is heard, and memories are made. They are responsible for steering the Club towards a sustainable future, upholding the values of service, integrity, and respect that have been the foundation of our establishment for years.
