Charity Support: Brett Valley Lodge

Charity has always been a core principle of Freemasonry and we’re proud of our long history of helping those in need. Our members make an important contribution at a local, national and international level every year by giving both their time and money to make a real difference to a number of organisations and communities.

It’s why Freemasonry is one of the largest charitable givers in the country, contributing around £50m to deserving causes each year. Freemasons do not only donate money – more than 18.5 million hours of volunteer work is undertaken by our members in their communities every year.

Our members engage in many activities including community fundraising and volunteering, as well as a varied programme of events where spouses, partners and families are welcome. We’ve made substantial donations across the country to local air ambulances, blood bikes and provide a number of emergency response vehicles, including two super aerial platforms for the London Fire Brigade.

Freemasonry does a huge amount for medical research into treatments for cancer, diabetes, heart disease and a whole range of other conditions, including Alzheimer’s, by funding UK medical scientists to make ground breaking discoveries.
