The Brussels Branch of the RBL has a mixture of predominantly but not exclusively British and Belgian members.
A number served in the last world war and remained in Brussels after its liberation from the occupying forces.
We actively seek Members, serving and ex- servicemen or women with a
tie to the services, but all are welcome. Annual membership is 20
euros.

The Brussels Branch provides Welfare for a number of protégés who are
ex servicemen or women who are in need of varying levels of support.
This includes hospital and home visits as well as financial assistance.
We also provide a social focus for our members which includes trips, lunches and various other activities.
The RBL Brussels Branch like others in Belgium also provides military
representation at a large number of ceremonies that are enacted at the
various war grave and cemeteries in Belgium.
Our main fund raising activity on an annual basis is the Poppy Appeal,
particularly relevant in Belgium as they are representative of the
poppies of Flanders and Picardy where some of the bloodiest fighting of
the first world war took place.
