Bronze plaque dedicated to the War Widows Guild of Australia. Additional Information War Widow's Guild of Australia website War Widows' Guild of Australia (Queensland) Inc (1947 - ) Location: Ground Floor, 15 Adelaide Street, Brisbane Qld 4000 The War Widows' Guild of Australia was formed in 1945 in Victoria by the late Mrs Jessie Mary Vasey OBE, CBE, widow of Major-General George Vasey. In 1947 the Queensland State Branch was formed. The Guild aims to watch over and protect the interests of war widows by lobbying politicians and offering its members friendship, empathy and comfort in times of need, particularly in the loss of a partner. Its motto is as relevant today as it was at the Guild's formation over 60 years ago:- We all belong to each other We all need each other It is in serving each other And in sacrificing for our common good That we are finding our true life (Extract from an Empire Day Message from His Majesty the late King George the Sixth in 1949).
