National Association of Re-enactment Societies

Its aim is to take the lead in safety standards and professionalism within historical re-enactment.

It acts as a liaison and negotiating body between UK government, other legislative bodies and the police. Guidance on a wide range of topics (e.g. Health & Safety, Firearms) is issued and conferences and training events are held for re-enactment societies throughout the United Kingdom.
