Welcome 

Andover and Winchester affiliated members should seriously consider further

supporting the REA by joining their local Branch. The benefit of joining provides an

opportunity to stay in touch with the corps activities as well as enjoying the

friendship and support of our members.


We are a small but active Branch that in common with other Branches keen to

embrace new members particularly those who are still serving or have more recently

completed their service. We visit locations of interest and often invite speakers both

military and civilian to our meetings; these meetings are often preceded by a light

supper.


With the exception of August and December monthly meetings are held on the third

Monday in the Warrant Officers' & Sergeants' Mess 26 Engineer Regiment at Perham Down.

Our main social function of the year is a Christmas Draw and Dinner which this year is to be held in the White Hart Hotel in Andover. 

Although a Royal Engineer Branch we also welcome affiliated members from other regiments and services who do not have an association Branch locally, they too are warmly welcomed into the “Sapper Family”.
