(Private. Are you invited?)

​

ARUK COMMUNITIES is the pre-eminent ‘Self-help,' 'Mutual Aid' & 'Support Group’ in the UK.

​

We are a private organisation, expanding through the generous donations and gifts of our diverse membership. 

 

Membership is exclusive, although open to all. 

 

Our role is to make available and to provide for our members and their families, what we regard as the ‘Four Pillars’ of ‘Civilised Society.’

​

1. THE RIGHT OF ACCESS TO LAW AND LEGAL ASSISTANCE

​

2. THE RIGHT OF ACCESS TO SUFFICIENT CLEAN AND WHOLESOME FOOD AND WATER

​

3. THE RIGHT TO SHELTER IN THE FORM OF HOUSING AND/OR OTHER FORMS OF ACCOMMODATION

​

4. THE RIGHT TO HEALTHCARE AND ACCESS TO THE MEANS TO MAINTAIN A HEALTHY LIFE

​

These things are simple and we believe, not too much to ask for. Yet they are increasingly absent in the lives of many people.  We regard the truth present in these ‘Four Pillars’ as being self-evident and necessary for the maintenance of a ‘Civilised Society.’




However, the acceptance of these Universal Rights, are increasingly being challenged and/or denied.

​

OUR PROGRAM

​

​

We at ARUK COMMUNITIES believe in utilising the skills and resources of our members to successfully deliver the necessities of ‘civilised life’ to all our members and their families.  We do this through our associated and affiliated organisations.

​

Unfortunately, we do not have the resources to extend our commitment to all and therefore membership is by invitation and recommendation only.

ARUK COMMUNITIES SOCIAL WELFARE FUND TRUST (ACSWFT)

​

When a member joins, they have the option of joining the ARUK Communities Social Welfare Fund.  This social welfare fund is a trust fund administered by a Board Of Trustees, who are ARUK Communities Elders.

​

This fund consists of an original generous donation to ARUK Communities, further donations by individuals and organisations, a one off initial payment by the member and a portion of that individual member’s monthly membership fees.

​

It is the duty of the Board of Trustees, to manage and invest the ACSWFT funds, so that they can make provision for any member and their family who qualifies for assistance.

All members and their families are entitled to request the assistance of the ACSWFT, if and when they require assistance.

​

Provision of assistance to a member is made through ARUK’s, unique and distributed network of ‘Clans.’  These are family groups, headed by either a ’Clan Mother’ or ‘Clan Elder.’  All family Clans, belong to an associated network and support federation known as the ‘URBAN AND RURAL CLAN MOVEMENT.’  

  

​

CLAN MOTHERS AND ELDERS

​

Clan Mothers and Clan Elders represent the leaders of ARUK COMMUNITIES and the URBAN AND RURAL CLAN MOVEMENT.

​

They act as the trusted custodians of both the material assets/resources and Spiritual traditions of these Organisations.  They are regarded by the movement, as teachers, spokespersons and as public representatives of both movements.
