What is the Mackworth Club?
The Mackworth Club was founded in 2018 to give the newer members of our Fraternity in West Wales a means to meet and socialise, both within the Lodge and ‘out of school’, with like-minded people.
Primarily the Club’s role is to provide events and other occasions, be it Masonically, socially, or of a charitable nature, for ‘Light Blue’ Freemasons to meet each other and enhance their Masonic journey.
This allows the Freemasons to grow in confidence while enabling them to further enjoy masonry and discover the wider fraternal nature of the institution and make new, lifelong friends.
Qualifications for Membership
Membership is automatic however continued membership is only allowed for subscribing members of a Lodge or Chapter in the United Grand Lodge of England (UGLE). The Club is essentially aimed at Brethren who do not yet have Provincial rank (the ‘Dark Blues’), however we actively encourage and invite the support of the more experienced masons with open arms as guests at our events.
Cost of Membership
Membership of the Mackworth Club is essentially free for life, after that the only cost will be what is spend at the bar or at an event.
Advantages of Membership
Membership of the Club affords an opportunity to make many new friends within the Province via group activities such as Lodge visits within the Province and further afield, social get togethers and group activities such as community charity activities, fishing trips, clay pigeon shooting, carting etc…etc.
