A week ago 18 intrepid cyclists set off on the fourth leg of a four year journey in support of the Wiltshire 2028 Festival - completing an epic 193.16 miles and visiting 16 Lodges - EPIC doesn't do it justice. @pgm_pglwilts @Masonic_Charity oh, and they raised over £5,000

Provincial Director of Ceremonies Richard Wright was joined by his Deputy, and the two Assistants when he was Installed as Master of Wiltshire Installed Masters' Lodge No. 6731. Great support from the whole team. @provgm

The dining room is looking bare at present but tomorrow it will be buzzing as we welcome a new Initiate, a joining member, and Proclaim the Master - lots to do. @provgm

90 big breakfasts served this morning at The Planks Masonic Centre in Swindon. Thanks to all for your support we hope you enjoyed it, maybe we could make it a regular event? Always nice for members and families to meet and have a cuppa and catch-up.

A combined Gooch Lodge and Gooch Chapter social event was held at Integer Park, Cricklade this afternoon. Perfect weather, food and company made it the perfect get together. Huge thanks to Paul Sharp and family for organising such a lovely event.

Giving a few hours of time and talent to improving YOUR Masonic Hall is as important as volunteering at your local hospital, supporting the Scouts and Guides, and generally just being a good sort of guy. Howard's looking for volunteers - is that you? @pgm_pglwilts

Becoming a Freemason shouldn't be too easy, but membership is open to men of good character who can claim to live by the principles of Integrity, Respect, Friendship, and Service. To become a Wiltshire Freemason tinyurl.com/wiltsfreemason @pgm_pglwilts

Wiltshire Freemasons are known for their generosity and support of good causes. None is more important than Teddies for Loving Care (Wiltshire) as it provides children admitted to our local A&E departments with a comforting teddy. Your £250 is vital. @pgm_pglwilts

For over 50 years Swindon Freemasons have supported the work of Swindon Women's Aid. We are delighted to continue that support as the organisation moves into a new phase serving Swindon under their new name Society Without Abuse. @swindonadver @BBCWiltshire

St Aldhelm Lodge and guests were given private access to the Atwel-Wilson Motor Museum collection of vehicles before enjoying a social glass or two of wine with cheese and biscuits, followed by muffins and cake! A lovely social event, with over £140 being raised for charity.
