About Public Service Friendly Society

The Public Service Friendly Society is a nonprofit organisation which operates within the Civil Service and approved Public Bodies. Using the contributions made by members, we adopt an altruistic approach by providing confidential assistance to those members and their dependants in times of need. We strive to fulfil this commitment to our fellow staff members in the most effective and efficient manner possible

The aim of the Public Service Friendly Society is to provide relevant assistance to Civil Servants and staff employed in approved Public Bodies as well as retired staff and their dependants.
