I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'for those in a group' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'married woman wraps english award' is the wordplay.
'married woman' becomes 'mrs' (Mrs is an example).
'wraps' means one lot of letters goes inside another (inserted letters get wrapped up).
'english' becomes 'E' (abbreviation).
'award' becomes 'MBE' (Member of the British Empire).
'e'+'mbe'='embe'
'mrs' going around 'embe' is 'MEMBERS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for members that I've seen before include "Parliamentarians" , "Joiners" , "People belonging" , "Limbs" , "structural beams?" .)
