Formed on 7th October 1995, Aylesford and Malling is one of the younger branches of The Royal Air Forces Association and has a combined membership of 84 Members and Associate Members.

Over the years, an active programme of fund-raising events has meant that the branch has been able to contribute a cumulative £100,000  to the Battle of Britain Wings Appeal, as well as providing welfare support to ex-Royal Air Force personnel in the local community. 
 
Each year from 2001- 2007, the branch raised more than £10,000 for Wings Appeal and has been awarded seven  RAFA Central Council £10,000 Certificates for its achievements. For all of those years our Wings Appeal Organiser was Sylvia Bonner. She was awarded an Area Presidential Certificate to coincide with the 2007 New Year Honours List for her devoted and outstanding service to the Association.

In 2007 the Branch was awarded a Certificate for raising a cumulative amount of £100,000 for Wings Appeal

In 2008 Area Presidential Certificates were awarded to Standard Bearer and Hon Welfare Officer Malcolm Bennett and Vice-chairman Margaret Burton for their services to the Branch.

Members enjoy a lively calendar of social activities including entertainment following monthly branch meetings, and various outings throughout the year.
