These are the local groups around the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Iceland. You are welcome to get in touch with anyone listed – the Newcomer welcome officer (Chatelaine/Castellan) or local group President (Seneschal) are a good place to start.
Many of the local practices and social gatherings are shown in our Upcoming Events calendar, and all are welcome. They are usually free or a nominal donation to attend, and can be a great place to meet people before you join.
If you’re looking for a group elsewhere in Europe or in South Africa, visit the Drachenwald Website.
