Do you have a question about our Lodge, what we do or Freemasonary in general? Don’t hesitate to get in touch – we welcome all enquiries, whether you’re curious, unsure, or just want to know more.  We have put together a few FAQ below.  

Freemasonry is the world’s oldest fraternal & charitable organisation focused on building good character through moral and spiritual values like integrity, friendship, respect and charity, using medieval stonemason’s tools and customs in allogorical rituals to teach self-improvementand community care.

It’s a non-religious, non-political society where members (Masons) meet in Lodges for ceremonial teachings and social events, aiming to be better individuals and contribute positively to society.

Freemasonry’s core principles center on moral and personal development, guiding members to be better men through values like Integraty, Friendship, Respect and Charity, often summarised as Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth. These values guide Masons to live honorable lives, support each other and their communities, seek knowledge, and contribute to society through philanthropic work, all while maintaining high moral standards.
To become a Freemason, you must be a man (or woman in some Lodges) of good character, 21 or over, believe in a Supreme Being (regardless of specific religion), and be acting of your own free will, with the process typically starting by contacting a member or an official body to express interest. 

Freemasons at meetings perform administrative tasks like approving minutes and discussing charity along side ritual work involving Symbolic ceremonies (degrees) to teach moral lessons, install officers, hear lectures and welcome new members, all followed by a social dinner called the “Festive Board” where they enjoy fellowship, friendship and good food and beer.

Meetings blend formal business, spiritual teachings, and social bonding, focusing on self-improvement, community support, and building character through allegorical dramas and lectures.
