With the advent of National Health Insurance the friendly society movement in this country entered upon a new phase of its history. The period which has elapsed since 1911 has witnessed farreaching changes affecting not only the methods by which friendly societies conduct their operations and the nature of the benefits they offer but also the character of their experience and even the outlook of the members. It may not be without interest therefore to review the more important of these changes so far as this is possible within the limits of a short paper.

The vitality displayed by the English Friendly Societies in face of the competition of the compulsory system of National Health Insurance is such as to justify the allocation to the societies of a reasonable part of the time which the Institute devotes to the study of problems of professional interest; and their claim for a share of our attention is strengthened by the fact that the day of the unqualified “valuer” has nearly passed, and that the work of advising the societies on the actuarial aspects of their relatively complex undertakings is now almost everywhere entrusted to Fellows of the Institute or of the Faculty.
