Freemasonry is one of the world’s oldest secular fraternal societies. It is a society of men who are concerned with moral and spiritual values.
Freemasonry is founded on the four guiding principles of Integrity, Friendship, Respect and Charity.
Rather than working on buildings like the masons of old, today’s Freemasons focus on building themselves as people of integrity.
One of the oldest social organisations in the world, Freemasonry is not defined by an ideology. It is open to people from all religions and political persuasions.
With a membership of over 200,000 from communities across the country, Freemasonry brings people together irrespective of their race or religion.
Kindness and charitable giving are deeply ingrained within the principles of Freemasonry.
