Insurance and Membership

Our insurance covers our members OR who are members of other SCA Insurance schemes in other affiliates/directly connected with SCA Inc etc.  People attending our events and practices must be members - beyond a first time, try it out demo situation.  There are many ways that we can arrange for the unwaged to have membership, so do please contact us if this is required, we absolutely do not wish to prevent anyone from playing, arrangements can be made, we just want to make sure we have all our paperwork in order.

Your Membership Fees in Use

SCA CIC UK is a UK and Republic of Ireland-based affiliate of the Society for Creative Anachronism, Inc., a 501(c)3 Educational Not-for-Profit organization, based in the US.
This affiliate is a local corporation, registered at Companies House, which provides its members services, like insurance. Your membership fees go towards:

• 3rd party insurance: if SCA attendees damage a site by accident, the SCA CIC UK's insurance pays the site's costs for repairs
• affiliate fees to SCA Inc in the US: so we stay part of the larger Society. When you attend an event in another kingdom, or another affiliate, the gatekeeper accepts your SCA CIC UK membership as valid to attend to play, fight, fence and marshal by shared Society rules
• online services: a yearly fee for MemberMojo, to manage memberships and renewals online, and deliver your membership info by email
• bank fees: to process payments and withdrawals
• accountant's fees: to do our books once a year

Your paid membership does not contribute to the principality of Insulae Draconis' funds for royal travel, for regalia, for events like Raglan ffair, or for contingencies. Those funds are wholly separate, managed by the principality exchequer.
