All Associates, regardless of rank, are expected to abide with the following:
I declare on my honour and faith that I will devote my best ability to the furtherance and maintenance of the Union Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, of the estates of the realm, and of the independence, confidence, optimism, prosperity and security of the British people; and that, consistently with my allegiance to the sovereign, I will promote with discretion, honesty and fidelity the objects of the Primrose League
We offer seven grades of membership, two of which are for veterans of the regular and reserve armed forces.
The titles 'Associate' and 'Dame/Knight Harbinger' have been used by the Primrose League for over 100 years
A Knight Harbinger was an officer in the Royal Household until the mid 19th century. In this sense, the term is now obsolete. Knight Harbingers were appointed by Lord Chamberlin's warrant. Their role was to go ahead of the Royal Court, when on progress, to announce the its forthcoming arrival ensure that suitable arrangements were made to accommodate the King or Queen and their entourage. A Knight Harbinger is a messenger and forerunner of something and, for that reason, the rank was adopted by the League in 1883. Primrose League Knights and Dames Harbinger represent the League and great things to come.
We are presently looking at options for a specific badge/regalia that will be available to Knights and Dames Harbinger.
