The Civil Service Retirement Fellowship (The CSRF)
The Civil Service Retirement Fellowship (The CSRF) is a national charity dedicated to helping former civil servants and their dependants make the most of their retirement. All of our charitable services revolve around friendship and help. We put friendship first. History In an article entitled 'A Pension Is Not Enough' written in the early 1960's Douglas Houghton MP highlighted the need for an organisation that offered retired civil servants an arena for friendship and companionship. His idea was supported and taken up by J P Wolstenholme, the then General Secretary of The Civil Service Benevolent Fund and on 9th April 1965 the CSRF was founded and opened its first branches in Guildford, Birmingham and the Solent area. Our Work today Friendship and support remain at the forefront of our work today. We run three charitable services: local community groups, national befriending schemes and a Freephone line that provides signposting & advice. Patron, President and Vice Presidents Aside from our Board of Directors, the CSRF also has the following people who support our aims and objectives: Patron Elizabeth Symons, Baroness Symons of Vernham Dean, PC President Lord Sedwill of Sherbourne KCMG FRGS Vice-Presidents Sir Alex Allan KCB Paul Gray CB Peter Jones CB Keith Lawrance Roi Milburn Ian Rathjen FCA Jenny Rowe CB
