On Sunday 1 February 2026 the Lodge proudly welcomed Duncan Collins, who was initiated as its newest Member in front of 60 Brethren. Three further Members were also proposed during the ceremony.

The celebrations continued at a lively Festive Board full of great company and good humour, while £210 was raised for Festival 29.
