ARA Groups and Member Affiliate Groups
 

 

ARA Groups (ARAGs)


ARAG is a term used within the ARA to describe a formal group of exclusively ARA Members who participate in re-enactment activities and enjoy their hobby together.

ARAGs are listed, by name, on the ARA PL policy schedule so ARAGs are covered by the ARA's PL Insurance.

Membership in ARAGs is exclusively for ARA Members only making the ARAG an informal subgroup of the ARA.

ARAGs objectives must be compatible with the objectives of the ARA and ARAGs are expected by their actions to uphold the objectives of the ARA.

ARAGs are accountable for the conduct of their members in compliance with the ARA Code of Conduct.

ARAGs are required to pay the Annual ARAG fee to the ARA.

ARAGs must provide the ARA with a list of the names and ARA Members numbers of the ARA Members in the ARAG.

ARAGs share the ARA PL policy by being listed by name on the ARA PL Policy Schedule.

 

If you would like more information about ARAGs please read the ARA Groups Guide on the Documents Page. 

If your group would like to become an ARAG please complete the Online ARAG Application Form

 

Member Affiliate Groups (MAGs)


The ARA is made up of individuals who may affiliate with others in groups. The ARA refers to these groups as Member Affiliate Groups (MAGs) and while the ARA may work closely to support these groups,  they have no constitutional relationship with ARA.

This is a list of some (but not all) of the groups that ARA members enjoy their hobby with.

Please have a look at each group and see if there is one that you would like to enjoy re-enacting with. Everyone is friendly and supportive of new members and would be pleased to make you feel welcome.
