ericstuart-bamfordDear Visitor,

Websites are considered to be objects of information and learning. This Provincial Grand Lodge of Surrey website is no exception; I therefore recommend it to you. It contains a wide variety of information both specific to this Province and to Freemasonry in general.  The launch of this site signifies the start of our New Masonic Year, one that I hope you all enjoy.

Yours sincerely,

Eric Stuart-Bamford

Provincial Grand Master

Do Freemasons only look after each other? No – Freemasonry is possibly the second largest donor to charity; the first being the National Lottery. It has Masonic charities that look after Mason’s wives, children’s education and their elderly and infirm, but these are funded entirely by Masons and no monies come from the public for these Masonic institutions. It is possible that the Hospice movement would collapse without the help given by Masonry. Many other charities have benefited over many years from donations by Masons and their Lodges, especially in the areas of medicine, medical research and in the needs of children.
