• Sxperiencing the unique experience of Freemasonry through fellowship and socialising with men and their families who share a common philosophy of life and have a shared purpose. It is one of the oldest and most successful opportunities to make lasting friendships.
• Learning more about our duties in society by meeting, sharing and discussing Masonic principles with like-minded people
• Developing our personal potential to be an influence for good in society through opportunities to practise charity in all its forms improved personal achievements by learning new skills from peers and mentors in a safe environment where the only reward is that of an increased sense of individual worth. Taking a part in the workings of the Lodge is a great testing ground for your public speaking, teamwork and communication which boosts self confidence and results in growth as a person.
• The opportunity to use life skills acquired through work or study to help those, who may not have had similar opportunities, to improve themselves.
• Meeting with people from all walks of life – broadening the mind through friendships as equals – enjoying the levelling effect of all being Brothers together irrespective of social, financial, occupational, public, private or religious position and status.
