The Polytechnic Lodge No. 2847 continues to thrive, with our membership increasing year on year.  With more candidates awaiting initiation and Brethren joining from other Lodges we now have an active membership of over 30 brethren

In addition to our solid approach to masonic rituals during our lodge meetings, we have a strong approach to our charitable activities. Most of our members donate to charity through our Charities Association and the Lodge in general receives income from our various [long term] financial investments. These continue to generate a reasonable amount of money. All the money received is donated to charitable causes.

The following is a breakdown of the various donations made in the three-year period between 2021 and 2024.

Charitable Donations 2021-2024

Masonic Donations £6,010.00

Non Masonic Donations £5,490

Non Masonic Donations

It should be pointed out that any donations made must take account of the individual brother’s personal and family circumstances, and there is no pressure to contribute anything. 10 pence from a poor man is more worthy than £10.00 from a rich man.
