Welcome to QCWA Darling Downs

“Celebrating Diversity, Resilience and Respect “

“Where regional, rural and urban meet and where diversity allows for growth, the home of QCWA – Darling Downs.”

Darling Downs Division encompasses the area east to the Lockyer Valley, north to Crows Nest, west to Oakey and south to Pittsworth. There are 10 branches in the Division. Beauaraba (Pittsworth), Crows Nest, Goombungee, Highfields, Kingsthorpe, Middle Ridge, Oakey, Toowoomba, Toowoomba Business City Women and Upper Locker/Withcott.

The Darling Downs Division has a rich heritage of over 75 years, while the Branches range from 3 years to 96 years of community service and involvement. We have members of all ages, young mums, working women, retirees and each Branch is unique, diverse in activities and achievements.

The QCWA Darling Downs Centre at 263 Margaret Street Toowoomba houses the Division office and a well-equipped hall – The Orana Room- which is well utilised by the community and our Branches. Many events are held in the Hall, including Handcraft Schools, craft afternoons for our young associate members and the youth of the community, Country Kitchens workshops, meetings, seminars, birthday celebrations and fundraising events.
