Failure to tackle growing problem Risky behaviour

Alcohol lowers resistance to disease. In the United Kingdom at least nine million people drink so much that they run the risk of serious long-term health problems.

Non-drinkers association

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 nondrinkers.

If you are a past or present member of the Sons of Temperance (or the Cadets of Temperance), or are a nondrinker, or share a concern over society's problems caused by alcohol we'd love to hear from you.
