All the Australian telephone collector clubs, and their subsidiaries (including this club, the WAHTS), are members of the  national body, STAA. There is a lot of information on the STAA site and it is well worth a visit. If you are outside WA, more information about joining the various interstate groups can be found by simply clicking on this link
