Uniting for Our Outdoor Lifestyle: Patrick from the Australian Recreation Union

In this episode of the Hunting Connection Podcast, I’m joined by Patrick from the Australian Recreation Union (ARU). The ARU was founded after existing organisations chose to focus on their individual pursuits rather than uniting against common challenges. For decades, recreational activities like shooting, fishing, 4WDing, riding, camping, and fossicking have been under constant threat from increasing legislation and land access restrictions.

 

Patrick shares how he and a dedicated group of individuals formed the ARU to bring these communities together, standing stronger in the fight against lockouts and overregulation. If you value your outdoor lifestyle, now’s the time to get involved—just like I did right after recording this episode!
