In developed countries, alcohol is one of the ten leading causes of disease and injury. Its use causes nearly one in ten of all ill-health and premature deaths in Europe.
Having previously been founded in the United States, the Order of the Sons of Temperance of Great Britain and Ireland was instituted in 1855. Thus for over a century and a half the Sons of Temperance, as a Friendly Society, has had an outstanding record of service in providing life insurance and savings schemes exclusively for total abstainers.
If you are a past or present member of the Sons of Temperance (or the Cadets of Temperance), or are a total abstainer, or share a concern over society’s problems caused by alcohol we’d love to hear from you.
