Abstract	We present the accelerator design for CLARA (Compact Linear Accelerator for Research and Applications) at Daresbury Laboratory. CLARA will be a testbed for novel FEL configurations. The accelerator will consist of an RF photoinjector, S-band acceleration and transport to 250 MeV including X-band linearisation and magnetic bunch compression. We describe the design of the accelerator. Beam dynamics simulations are then used to define an operating working point suitable for the seeded FEL scheme.
