What does Wesleyan do?

The Wesleyan Provident Assurance Society was established on April 23, 1841, in a small room next to the church on Cherry Street by Birmingham’s Wesleyan Methodist Church.

At the height of the Industrial Revolution, the Society’s mission was to assist Birmingham industry workers in setting aside money for unexpected medical bills and burial costs. August 27, 1841, saw the collection of the first premium. They offered life insurance and annuities even back then, collecting a few pence each week to aid with medical and burial costs.
