The East Africa Women's League was started in Nairobi in 1917, its main concern being the welfare of women and children of all races in the country then known as 'British East Africa'.
Then in 1943 Lady Baden-Powell (Olave) started the England branch of the EAWL which was followed in 1944 by Lady Stratheden starting the Scotland Branch.
In 1975 these branches became the EAWL(UK), the objects being to relieve poverty, sickness and distress to residents and ex-residents of East Africa of United Kingdom origin who are in necessitous circumstances.
The EAWL(UK) became a Registered Charity in 1986.
