Country Women's Association of New South Wales

The Country Women's Association (CWA) of New South Wales, established in 1922, is Australia's largest women's organization, dedicated to enhancing the lives of women and children, particularly in rural and remote areas. The Coonabarabran branch, located at 76 Cassilis Street, serves as a vital community hub, offering a welcoming space for local women to connect, support one another, and engage in various activities. Members participate in fundraising, handicrafts, cultural events, and discussions on social and environmental issues. The branch also hosts competitions in cooking, handicrafts, art, and creative writing, fostering skill development and community spirit. By joining, women become part of a network that advocates for improved conditions and welfare, ensuring that the voices of rural women are heard and their needs addressed.
