The
Civil Service Retirement Fellowship
 Can
you spare some time to help the Civil Service's very own retirement
organisation support its retirees? Perhaps you're planning your retirement
and would like to meet and socialise with other retirees from the Service
who come together voluntarily to help former colleagues in need. Whatever
your retirement plans, there's bound to be some aspect of our work to which
you can contribute whether through active participation in our nationwide
branch and group network or by simply joining as a member. The CSRF also
offers a comprehensive pre-retirement course which is specifically designed
for civil servants. In addition we co-ordinate "spare" places on
civil service retirement courses throughout the UK and make these available
to all departments. Please click on the above link for an in-depth picture
of who we are and what we do and of course... we very much hope that we
shall hear from you.
The
Civil & Public Servant Artists
 Civil
and Public Service Artists (CPSA) is open to civil servants, to the whole of
the public service, whether serving or retired, and to anyone else over the
age of 18 who is interested in furthering its objects. These are simply to
encourage, co-ordinate and offer practical assistance for the appreciation,
practice and study of the fine and applied arts.
Benenden
Healthcare Society
 Benenden
is a "mutual" organisation not a medical insurer. Its
members club together to benefit from the first class medical help they
need, when they need it most. Everyone pays the same - a small
weekly contribution of just £1.25 per person. They provide help on a wide
range of medical conditions and can also offer a cash plan to further ease
your budget.
