Sons of Temperance

Our emblem is a red, white and blue triangle within a blue circle; originally the badge had the motto love, purity and fidelity on the sides of the triangle and the society's name around the circle.

News of the Sons of Temperance Friendly Society

Established for over 150 years, the Sons of Temperance has had an outstanding record of service in providing friendly society saving plans and life insurance exclusively for teetotallers.

  • The society has been actively considering its future. Meetings have been held with our actuary and with the Financial Services Authority.
  • The Sons of Temperance Friendly Society has ceased the effecting of new business. Existing policies remain in force and members may be assured that their contracts are guaranteed.
  • We are having discussions with another friendly society to whom we may transfer our residual long-term business. Ultimately the transfer has to be approved by the Financial Services Authority.
  • In due course those members for whom we have current addresses will be notified of future arrangements. Do we have your current address?
  • We will be continuing, and enhancing, our social, fraternal and educational activities.

If you are a past or present member of the Sons of Temperance (or the Cadets of Temperance), or you are a non-drinker, or you share a concern over society's problems caused by alcohol then we'd love to hear from you – and to have your support.
