WHO IS AND WHAT IS A.I.R?
A.I.R is an association of Australian retirees who are either fully or partly self funded.
It is a not-for-profit company, limited by guarantee, and run by volunteers for the benefit of its members.
Its major purpose is to represent the interests of the rapidly growing number of self funded retirees in the community.
The company has branches in all the states and territories. The Bayside branch is one of 14 branches in Victoria.

Dear Reader,
This is just a brief overview of who we are and what we do. We would welcome you as a new member at our branch if you would like to join us. Now that A.I.R. and its branches are linked together on the internet, communications are speedy and interactive. If you are not on the internet, our regular branch meetings will give you the opportunity to express your own views. As self-funded retirees we all have a common interest in securing the best possible benefits that we are entitled to from governments. And as our logo proclaims we simly ask for Justice & Equality while retaining our Independence.
Dick Morgan,
Branch President.
