Welcome to ARNO

The Association of Royal Navy Officers (ARNO) is a flourishing 5,000-strong membership organisation for all Royal Navy, Royal Marines and QARNNS officers alongside their Maritime Reserve counterparts. Officers from the RFA, WRNS, RNVR and SCC are also welcome. You can JOIN in minutes, and reap the rewards for years to come.

“ARNO and the RNOC are institutions of which every naval officer should be proud and be equally proud of their membership. Huge benefits and the support given to those who require it is impressive.”

KEY BENEFITS include social events, monthly online talks, regular publications and email newsletters, competitive RAC breakdown cover, ARNO Motoring assistance with new car sales and high-street brand discounts via our partnership with XEXEC. Plus the chance to network and connect online via our weekly Friday Night Sundowners, Quiz Nights and Monday morning Skills Share sessions.

ARNO at Home – in response to the challenges of Covid-19 we reached out to members who may be isolated at home; connecting people by phone, email or for practical support locally, depending on need. This is an ongoing support network – just email enquiries@arno.org.uk and we will put you in touch with fellow members.

ARNO Matters is an effective way to keep in touch – if you’re not receiving our weekly e-newsletter, you can easily change your preferences in the members’ area. ARNO Matters includes Royal Navy news, updates, current offers, members’ stories, competitions and more. Contributions from members are welcome – we’re currently collecting ‘Run Ashore’ stories from around the world. Email yours to comms@arno.org.uk.
