Kicking off 2026 with Dr Cliff

History Redcliffe is excited to welcome you back for another year of fascinating stories, lively discussions, and community connection. We are thrilled to announce our very first meeting for 2026, and we’d love for you to join us at 2pm on 6th February at the Redcliffe Library Meeting Room.

We’re starting the year with a bang by inviting Dr Cliff Pollard as our guest speaker. Dr Pollard is a History Redcliffe favourite, renowned for his incredibly informative presentations on medical and military history. His topic for our first meeting of 2026 on 6th February is Surgical and medical advances in WWI. Whether you’re a long-time member or curious newcomer, you won’t want to miss the insights and tales Dr Pollard has to share.

So if you’re a local legend or new to the area, everyone is welcome at History Redcliffe. No prior knowledge required – just bring your curiosity and love for a good story.

We can’t wait to see familiar faces and meet new ones in 2026!

November meeting

Join us for our next meeting on Friday 7th November at 2pm in the meeting room at the Redcliffe Library. Come along and meet the lovely History Redcliffe members.

This month we are sharing the exciting Indexing Project. We are indexing all History Redcliffe newsletters so that our local history is easily accessible for everyone.

We’re also taking a drive down memory lane…or more specifically, Anzac Memorial Avenue. It is nearly 100 years since it was officially opened.

Come along and join us. Everyone is welcome !
