Before you fill in the form we do have an entrance policy, and there are some things you need to be aware of.

  1. NO NAZIS. We are an unpolitical group and will not tolerate any form of political extremism..

  2. You must be able to attend at least 5 events a year on our calendar. We do public living history shows, public battles, and private battles. This is a commitment hobby, attending shows simply means getting the most out of your membership.

  3. It can be expensive. We have kit which we can lend out on a short term basis, but really you have to think in terms of the basic kit setting you back about £1000 and you having it together within the first 12 months of joining. Everything you will need is comphrehensively explained in our illustrated new starters pack and you will be guided through the process by the groups NCO's.

  4. Due to insurance issues and firearms hire its over 18s only.
