Re: Band of Hope

No connection, although I think the Accrington TocH may have met close by the Rechabites. TocH was originally for servicemen to gather together in some form of religious meeting, or friendship brought about by the leaders who were often clergymen. Band of Hope was for children to be told the evils of drink. Rechabites were adults who campaigned against drink.
