"Savings are so vital to our Society in good times and bad times. They create the engine of future economic growth and provide a safety cushion for families. Yet despite this no British Government in living memory has put savers ahead of borrowers. We need a fundamental change of attitude to savers from any future Government and the financial sector; this the challenge and task of SOS."

"Successful businesses are built on careful debt management and investment for the future. It's no different for families and individuals. In Britain there are millions of people who care deeply about the future financial security of themselves and their families.......it's a fundamental human objective.
But these millions have so far had no collective voice to challenge Governments, of whatever colour, to give practical support and encouragement to those who want to save. We need a new emphasis on prudence because prudence has been shamefully treated. That's the driving force behind Save Our Savers. Join us, please."

Putting savers' ethics into action
We believe that this country’s savers embody the very best of British values as resourceful, entrepreneurial and independent people.
To reflect this position Save Our Savers has been set up as a commercial company rather than a charity that has to rely on donations. It also means that we don’t have to ask you for a single penny to support our efforts – joining and supporting Save Our Savers is completely free of charge.
To date we have been funded out of private investment. In the future we intend to maintain our income through a variety of commercial activities such as advertising. However, as an ethical organisation, we are committed to ensuring that one third of all profits not re-invested to support our campaign will go to charity.
SOS Savers Ltd is registered in England, company number 6657308. Registered office is at Heath View, Ray Lane, Blindley Heath, Surrey, RH7 6LH
