Brand new RAUK forum
We are very excited to announce the launch of our new RAUK discussion forum. You'll find this in the top menu bar on the right hand side.
Members will be able to ask questions, share experiences and network with like-minded people in a safe space.
You will need to login to post, if any current member does not have login details, please contact us for help.
Website logins for existing members
We have started adding content to the website that is exclusively available to RA-UK members, beginning with an electronic copy of the RA-UK handbook (please note, some chapters are still in progress).
All members joining online will be automatically able to view content with the login details they supply on joining.
Existing members now have the ability to view the content too. Everyone should have received an email today (12/2/20) with their username (the email they used when joining RA-UK) and a generic password. This should be changed when first logging into the site.
If you have not received this email (after checking spam), please contact the helpdesk, where we will sort this out for you.
