AFRA is very proud to announce that the South Wales Borderers have made a decision to affiliate. We would like to welcome them to the Association and to acknowledge their efforts over the past 15 years in representing one of the most illustrious regiments in the British Army. Most famously, the actions at Rorkes Drift in 1879. Paul and Wendy are amongst the best known faces in the hobby and it is an indication of the faith they place in AFRA that they have come on board. CROESO!

AFRA now has over 250 members! We are the fastest growing Association in the UK and it is due to the membership themselves. Word of mouth is helping to spread the message. Many people are realising that AFRA is NOT a group. It is not a group of groups. AFRA is an independent Association to which all Living Historians, Re-enactors and people with a bona fide active interest in Living History of the 20th Century can belong.
There is much made of the fact that we need a body which issues an "idenitfying card". There is much talk of "recognition" and also of "Legitimacy". Remember - As long as you stay within the law, what you do IS legitimate. What we at AFRA are doing is giving people an option to voluntarily form one central organisation to which ALL can belong.
AFRA is the only organisation at present proving that it is benign, that it supports and that it provides benefits of membership. we are also able to prove that we have NO allegiance to any particular aspect or "side" in the Living History World. No one as yet has had any cause for concern regarding the conduct of AFRA or its officers. AFRA exists simply to bring people together, without prejudice or agenda save that of forming one representative body to which all eventually can contribute.
So thanks to those pioneering souls who have joined early. Welcome to those about to join and We'll see you soon to those still thinking about it.
AFRA - Leading the Way and Proving the Point. Actions Speak Louder than Words.
