• Providing welfare and social support services to those members and other ex-service men and women when they require it;
• Providing advocacy and representation for all ex-service men and women regardless of thier membership in the league as required;
• Running Commemoration and remembrance activities in the local community and supporting education activities;
• Supporting democratic principles and fostering good citizenship among the young people in the local community;
• Managing RSL assets for the benefits of its members; and
