Freemasonry is a society of men concerned with moral and spiritual values.

Freemasonry provides a structure to instil in its members a moral and ethical approach to life: its values are based on integrity, respect, friendship and charity.

Freemasonry provides the common foundation for friendships between its members, many of which will last a lifetime.

At the same time members

are urged to regard the interests of the family as paramount.

Freemasonry brings people together irrespective of their race, religion, background or any other perceived differences that can divide us as a society.

Freemasonry also teaches concern for people, care for the less fortunate and help for those in need.

Freemasons practice charity and care, not only for their own, but also for the community as a whole – both by charitable giving, and by voluntary efforts and works as individuals.

The Masonic Charitable Foundation provides relief grants as well as donating to charitable projects and causes.

Freemasons launch the first annual report in its 300 year history.

Includes the new mission statement, which sits alongside the four key values of Integrity, Respect, Friendship, Charity.
