Lodge of Fidelity No 289

One of the oldest lodges in West Yorkshire

[Yorkshire West Riding Freemasons @WYFreemasons]

Dewsbury-based @shawxsharks Rugby League club 🏉 has completed a major improvement to their club house thanks to a grant of £2,400 from the West Riding Masonic Community Fund sponsored by the Leeds-based Lodge of Fidelity, plus a further £2,400 match-funded by @Masonic_Charity

It’s a wonderful charity, distributing food to food banks and community groups across Yorkshire, and another example of Freemasons making a positive impact in the community. @WYFreemasons @WestMasoni58444
