Le Régiment Gatinois
Le Régiment Gatinois represent the French Army during the American War of Independence, based primarily across the North of England and attending events in the North/Midlands. Armed with new primary research, we aim to be as progressive as possible, bringing to life this unique regiment during the height of their involvement in the American Revolution. Alongside our military roles, the Voices of Williamsburg represent a wide range of civilian life in Virginia, where the regiment was deployed in 1781. We attend a wide range of display and skirmish events, including more immersive experiences and trips overseas, and are seeking those keen to live the life of the eighteenth century to join our community. Although we portray a grenadier company in the French army, neither height or French-language-skills are a requirement to serve in uniform. We are actively inclusive, and are happy to work with you to support you with any disabilities you may have.

49th Division Living History Association
Founded in 2024 as an ‘umbrella’ association for a number of long established living history groups - the ‘Bloody Red Tabs’, the ‘Dukes at War’, the ‘Sheffield Polar Bears’, ‘Padre’s Hour’, and the ‘Railway Operating Group (R.E.). Whilst all of the LHGs retain their individuality, they come together to form a collective capable of putting on huge, immersive displays as well as more intimate recreations of the past. Focused on ‘the Butcher Bears’, we portray infantry impressions as well as staff, engineering, medical, and chaplain personnel of the men of the 49th (West Riding) Infantry Division between 1943-1945. We attend events large and small, including a number of the premier public events every season, as well as immersive private training events. Although all three groups formed in Yorkshire, we have members from all over the country - from the Scottish Borders to Essex via Cumbria, Northumberland, Co. Durham, Yorkshire, Lancashire, Greater Manchester, Derbyshire, Anglesey, South Wales, and Oxfordshire - so don’t focus too much on where you are, as most groups and associations tend to come together at events rather than live round the corner from you! We are always keen to hear from potential new members, especially males aged 18-45. Drop us a message via email or Messenger as you prefer to find out more.

17th Regiment of Foot 1775-1783
The 17th Regiment of Foot 1775-83 is a UK Living History society, part of Redcoats and Revolutionaries, which portrays the people of the American War of Independence for public education and entertainment at events around the country. Our specialty is the life of the Soldier, on home service, or fighting in the many campaigns of the American Revolutionary War. Our volunteer members band together to research the clothing, accoutrements and trappings of the late 18th century British soldier, and how they lived, worked and fought. Alongside the soldiers, members also recreate the lives of the many civilians who followed the army across whole continents, as wives and children, or tradesmen supporting the military machine. We have members from all over the UK with a core contingent in the East Midlands, providing guidance to outfit each soldier, and training them in the use of real black-powder muskets! It's a rewarding hobby that allows you to get away from the banality of modern life, camp in amazing historic venues, while entertaining and educating audiences. If you like the sound of that, consider joining us!
