Join us
Group affiliation is available by application only, due to insurance conditions.
We want to engage all people, of all backgrounds, in the folk arts. Therefore we do not accept as members any morris sides who use solid full face coloured makeup which could be taken by a reasonable observer as likely to imitate or parody a skin colour different from their own. Read more: Policies
