THE Royal Edward Masonic Centre, South Street, Leominster made its annual distribution of donations to local charities September 12.
The following donations, totalling well in excess of £3,000 were distributed by the Worshipful Master, Worshipful Brother Andrew Cowell: to Acorns Children's Hospice, Echo celebrating its 25th anniversary of making a real difference to the lives of disabled people in Leominster and beyond, Kyre Riding for the Disabled, Marches Family Network, Megan Baker House, and Parkinson's UK – the Worshipful Master's choice made at his installation.
Andrew Cowell said that he and his fellow Freemasons place a great deal of emphasis on supporting local charities and organisations in the area.
Worshipful Brother Gareth Prosser, Charity Steward for Royal Edward for the last four years, mentioned that a sum of rising £15,000 has been awarded to local charities during that period, and that it was the wish of all at the Royal Edward Masonic Centre to continue such support where needed.
