United Kingdom Rocketry Association

The United Kingdom Rocketry Association (UKRA) represents high power, mid power, model and amateur/experimental rocketry in the United Kingdom. UKRA is also the specialist body to the BMFA with responsibilities for High Power Rocketry.

Formed in 1996, UKRA organises large national rocket launch events each year and through UKRA affiliated rocketry clubs, organised rocket launches are able to take place on a weekly basis.

UKRA liaises with government bodies on behalf of UK rocketeers and, through it's certification programme and network of Range Safety Officers, ensures safe launches. It also provides, through the BMFA, 3rd party liability insurance of up to £10 million which is included in UKRA membership.

We strongly recommend that you join the UKRA if you can, it is well worth the money, just the insurance alone is worth it. The value of attending clubs and flying along other experienced rocketeers is the most valueable part.
