History
Foresters is a 21st century application of an
idea that can be traced back to less affluent times when working
people were organising themselves into associations and guilds, for
mutual protection and support. Our continued commitment to
understanding the needs of our members by offering products and
benefits which assist in financial security and peace of mind, also
helps us to help others in times of need or disaster and raise
funds for worthwhile causes. We offer products and membership
benefits which will assist our members with their financial
security and peace of mind.
For 135 years, throughout the UK, USA and
Canada, Foresters has been guided by a powerful principle: that the
growth and prosperity of our members and their families is linked
to the communities in which they live. Last year our
worldwide charity work involved nearly 1 million hours of community
involvement, with Foresters members and employees assisting more
than 400 charities. In the UK alone we raised £1.7m for worthwhile
causes. We measure our success not only by financial strength, but
also by the positive impact we have on our members’
communities.
