The women were involved in many activities. One was the 'Cheer-Up Huts' which provided entertainment for soldiers. In Adelaide, there was one on the corner near Parliament House. Other activities included making clothing for servicemen. This had the added benefit of bringing women together for mutual support. Preparing and sending food parcels for the troops, writing letters even to those they did not know were other organized activities.
