Belgrave RSL was one of the very first RSLs in Victoria, commencing in 1917 just before WW1 ended.

The Belgrave Memorial (RSL) Hall was destroyed by fire in June 1957 with the amalgamation of Belgrave, Tecoma and Upwey occurring in 1974.

Originally, there were two premises used for the RSL Services at different times, and both were located at or near the Cameo Cinema, Belgrave.

Now known as the Upwey-Belgrave RSL and Running Rabbits Military Museum operating in Upwey on Mast Gully Road, Upwey and services our communities throughout the local and surrounding region.

Upwey Belgrave RSL is a traditional, non-gaming Sub-Branch, nestled in the foothills of the Dandenong Ranges.

We are committed to providing vital resources and services that support and enhance the social and physical wellbeing of our Veterans and the Community.

Our outreach to Veterans and their families is predominantly enabled through fundraising activities, events and the commitment of our dedicated volunteers.

What do we do? Have you heard of our very Special Poppies Bistro? A must-visit with family and friends for special occasions, or just an outing. Open Wednesday through Saturday for dinner, or lunch on Saturday or Sunday. Our special catering outreach extends to Functions and Events of all sizes and celebrations. A warm and welcoming environment beckons.

We offer a wonderful variety of entertainment, including music from the best of local talent to special shows and celebratory days on everybody’s calendar. Why not dinner and a show? Or simply, a pleasant afternoon or evening to wind down.

Everybody is welcome to join, and membership categories cater from Veterans through to social members. As we remember with pride and gratitude on this Remembrance Day, we also draw our local community to support our RSL Club to continue our vital outreach.
