Name of Creator: The Lancashire and Cheshire Miners’ Permanent Relief Society (LCMPRS)

Administrative history:

The Lancashire and Cheshire Miners’ Permanent Relief Society was set up in 1872 to provide financial relief to miners. In return for a weekly subscription, relief was paid to miners who were unable to work as a consequence of an injury sustained in a accident and to the widows, children and dependent relatives of miners who were killed. In 1920 the Society began making payments to miners who were unable to work due to industrial diseases and to musculoskeletal disorders caused by their work. In 1934 cover was extended to accidents outside of the workplace. In 1939 the Society also began making payments to miners suffering from lung diseases such as and pneumoconiosis. As well as financial relief, the Society paid for medical treatment and surgical appliances, such as artificial limbs. Membership was open to men, women and children.

The Society was governed by a board of trustees and managed by a board of management and appointed officials, including a general secretary. Although moving across a number of sites, the office of the Society was always based in Wigan.

The Society assisted with the administration of the payment of relief to the families of the victims of the Maypole Colliery Explosion, 1908 and the Hulton Colliery (Pretoria) Explosion, 1910 made from the Mayor of Wigan and Mayor of Bolton funds respectively.

As a consequence of the decline of the industry in Lancashire, Society membership fell.

In 2006 the assets, liabilities and engagements of the Society were transferred to the Druids Sheffield Friendly Society. In 2015 the Druids Sheffield transferred their engagements to the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Manchester Unity Friendly Society, a part of the Oddfellows Group.
