The Freemasons' Challenge 2021 is a walk around the UK by lodges from the United Grand Lodge of England's Universities Scheme.
During the walk, the Universities Scheme Travelling Loving Cup, the DKW Cup, is passed from one Universities lodge to another. It is a great opportunity to mark the reopening of society following the Coronavirus pandemic whilst raising money for the Duke of Edinburgh Memorial Fund.
Brethren and supporters of St John’s Lodge No 3972 - which meets at Sheaf Close, Northampton and is a member of the Universities Scheme - will do their bit by walking 28-miles of the Challenge on the weekend of the 7th and 8th of August 2021. The agenda is as follows:
- Day 1 - Freemasons’ Arms, Market Harborough to Freemasons’ Hall, Sheaf Close, Northampton
- Day 2 - Daventry Masonic Centre to Rugby Masonic Centre
