Did you know Scottish Friendly's roots stretch back more than 160 years?

Originally known as the City of Glasgow Friendly Society, "friendly societies" were created to support people and bring communities together.

More than a century and a half later, being friendly is still at the heart of everything we do. Not just for our members of today, but those for tomorrow, and the local communities that we serve.
