The recent Manchester Arena tragedy has brought a generous response from Masons in this Province who have so far raised £7,000 to help relieve the suffering caused by the tragedy.

This has been sent to the Province of East Lancashire where WBro Ken Davies, MBE, the East Lancashire Provincial Grand Charity Steward, is co-ordinating Masonic fund raising.  He said

Please convey my heartfelt thanks to all who have contributed.  I can assure them that all donations will be put to good use through through a specially set up charitable trust.   This response from Freemasons shows Freemasonry at its best.

There have also been donations from other Provinces.
