It is always good to see how grants are being used. This week Herefordshire Freemasons were invited by ECHO to see the new Echo Smart Space at West St in Leominster. The new premises will enable the charity to make full use of the grant from the @Masonic_Charity provided over the next three years.
The pictures show the Provincial Charity Steward for Herefordshire and the Echo DJs enjoying the quiz being broadcast via the on-line radio station. Also watching a demonstration of the new weaving room which previously had to be swapped once a week with the sewing group but now has its own space in the new premises.
We look forward to keeping in touch with the wonderful community service that Echo provides.

Over 130 Herefordshire Freemasons and guests attended the Annual Provincial Grand Lodge meeting on the 1st June. The annual meeting was for the investiture of the new Provincial Team and past ranks and promotions. Congratulations to all those receiving preferment.
At the meeting the Head of Freemasonry in Herefordshire also officially launched Festival 31 and released the design of the new Festival Jewel.
The Festival is a focussed period of fundraising in Herefordshire to support @Masonic_Charity The Freemasons' Charity and local charities in Herefordshire. Over the last year the Freemasons’ Charity has awarded over £10million in grants to charities including a number locally here in Herefordshire.
This will enable us to continue supporting the local community in Herefordshire.

Community Day for the Lodge at Colwall Hotel, thanks to our local Community First Responders for their support and sessions on use of De-tribulations
A quieter session than we had hoped but weather was against us but useful anyway to get to know our local community better.

[Herefordshire Freemasons @PGLHerefords]

A very busy week. Many Lodges break for the summer, so May is their last meeting until September or October. They certainly ended with a flourish, with three Lodges performing a Third Degree Ceremony this week in Hay, Ledbury and Hereford and another having the Installation of a new Master for the next year. All meetings well attended with visitors from far and wide.
Lots happening this weekend with preparations for Provincial Grand Lodge at the beginning of June and the first of our PSA Testing events in Ross on Wye.

[Stuart Jones, Deputy PGM Herefordshire @dpgmhereford]

A great evening at Cantilupe lodge 4083 to see a double third conducted by the Worshipful Master and amply supported by his team - the practice showed through! Well managed and an enjoyable festive board - well done all

A very good evening at Eastnor Lodge 751 to see a raising on behalf of Royal Edward Lodge 892 - Congratulations to all of those involved and excellent festive board to follow - Now all enjoy your summer break ☀️
