Welcome to the Provincial Grand Lodge and Chapter
of Yorkshire North & East Ridings
An official communication from the United Grand Lodge of England
Tuesday 17 March 2020
In view of the latest Government advice on the coronavirus pandemic,
all Lodge and Chapter meetings within England and Wales are suspended until further notice.
Freemasonry is intended to offer those who are members the opportunity to make themselves better individuals and to demonstrate to others that they are kind, caring and considerate to their families, those in their workplace and all those less fortunate than themselves. This is in a world where often, such laudable qualities are sadly missing. It is hoped that this site will dispel the myth that we only look after ourselves as you will see that we play an active part in supporting many local and national charities.
A quick visit to the Meeting Places page will show that there is a Lodge holding its meetings near to you – as you would expect of an organisation that is very much a part of the community. If you want to look inside the building – just ask. To those who are members, the Province hopes to provide further information and guidance; to those of you who are not Freemasons, then we hope that it may give you some insight into our organisation and prove to be of interest.

Provincial Grand Lodge Yorkshire North and East Ridings Donate to Evie Hodgson’s campaign
“Thank you so much for the incredibly generous donation from the Provincial Grand Lodge Yorkshire North and East Ridings on behalf of Evie Hodgson’s campaign to help find and fund a stem cell match.
It is organisations such as yours that make a huge difference to us and help us fund the registrations that we receive as a result of appeals such as Evie’s and that will ultimately attract more people to the stem cell register and give us more potential life saving matches. We really can’t thank you enough. More donors gives people suffering from blood cancer more hope.
I am sure you are following Evie’s progress and are aware she is now back at home, but with a tough a long road to recovery ahead, which she does that with such high spirits and incredible fervour. She is a very special little girl.
A huge and very heartfelt thank you from all of us at DKMS. Louise Clague – Donor Recruitment Manager, North
The journey of a lifetime
Becoming a Freemason is like going on a journey: from joining as an Entered Apprentice, it typically takes one or two years to become a Master Mason, with each of the three stages marked by a special ceremony.
