🌼💛 Everyone’s welcome at Daffodil Day! 💛🌼

We’d love to see the Alpha community come together on Saturday, 22nd August at the Alpha Jockey Club for a great day of homemade food, good company and fundraising for Cancer Council.

Every ticket, raffle ticket, bunch of daffodils and donation helps make a real difference for Australians affected by cancer.

If you can make it along, we’d love to see you there! Bring your family, friends, neighbours or workmates and enjoy a great country day out. 🌼

Can’t make it on the day? You can still be part of it by making a donation through our fundraising page. Every dollar counts, and no donation is too small.

💛 Donate here:

Better yet… make a donation and come along! Together, we can raise even more for this wonderful cause.

Thank you for supporting our Daffodil Day fundraiser. We can’t wait to welcome you all on Saturday, 22nd August at 11am! 🌼💛

🌼💛 MARK YOUR CALENDARS! 💛🌼

The countdown is on for our QCWA Alpha Branch Daffodil Day Fundraiser, and we’d love to see you there!

📅 Saturday, 22nd August 2026
⏰ 11:00am
📍 NEW LOCATION – Alpha Jockey Club

If you’ve never been to one of our Daffodil Day events before, this is your sign to come along! And if you’ve joined us in previous years, you already know the incredible spread our QCWA ladies put on. Homemade country cooking, friendly faces, plenty of laughs and a wonderful community atmosphere – what’s not to love? 🍰☕💛

The reason we keep doing this year after year is simple. Cancer touches all of us. In Queensland, 1 in 2 men and 1 in 2 women are expected to be diagnosed with cancer before the age of 85. Whether it’s a family member, a mate, a neighbour or a workmate, chances are cancer has impacted you or someone close to you.

🎟️ Tickets will be on sale soon!
🌼 Pre-orders for fresh daffodils will also be opening soon, so stay tuned.

Please help us spread the word by liking, sharing and tagging your friends. Let’s make 2026 our biggest Daffodil Day yet! 💛

Today, members of the QCWA Alpha Branch were honoured to attend the ANZAC Day service in Alpha, joining with our local community to remember and pay tribute to the brave men and women who have served and sacrificed for our country.

ANZAC Day holds a special place in the hearts of communities, where the values of mateship, courage, resilience, and service continue to be deeply respected and remembered.

We are grateful for the freedoms we enjoy today because of those who gave so much. Their legacy lives on through generations.

Lest We Forget.

🌸 QCWA Alpha Branch – Next Meeting 🌸
18th April 2026

We’d love to invite anyone who might like to come along and join us at our next meeting. Whether you’re hoping to meet new people, get a little more involved in the community, or simply come along for a chat, a cuppa and some yummy food, you are very welcome.

If you feel like giving back in any way whether that’s helping plan events, lending a hand on the day, sharing ideas, or just being part of the group. We would truly love to hear from you.

Is there something you’d like to see CWA get involved in or bring to our community? We’d love to hear your ideas too.

Every little bit helps, and new faces are always welcome 💙

💙 Making a Difference Beyond Alpha 💙

We are so proud to share that $4,100 raised at our flamed grilled conversations night has gone towards upgrading the shuttle bus waiting area at the Charles Wanstall Apex Lodge in Brisbane.

Thanks to this generous contribution, the space has been repurposed into a comfortable, cool and convenient area for guests staying at the lodge while waiting for the shuttle service. It is now under cover, with more room to sit and relax. A small change that makes a big difference for those already going through so much while receiving cancer treatment.

Knowing that funds raised right here in our little community are helping provide comfort and care to rural families away from home means so much to us.

We would also like to acknowledge and thank the wonderful volunteers and staff at the lodge Bill, Bill, Richard, Kim, Pete, Jo, Prachi, Nicole and Judith for their work in completing the upgrade.

🌸 Calling for Nominations – President Position 🌸

The QCWA Alpha Branch is calling for nominations for the position of President, and we’d love to hear from anyone who might be interested in stepping into this rewarding role.

QCWA Alpha Branch is a supportive, community-focused group that works hard to bring people together through events, fundraising, and initiatives that make a real difference locally and beyond. We are passionate about connection, community, and looking out for one another.

The President works alongside a strong and supportive executive committee, so you’re never doing it on your own. You’ll have a great team around you to help run meetings, organise events, and keep our branch ticking along smoothly.

If you enjoy being part of a community, supporting others, and helping guide a great group of women forward, this could be a wonderful opportunity.

Please feel free to share or tag someone who you think would be perfect for the role 💛
