In August this year the Worshipful Master of Ronaldshay Lodge No. 3376, Joseph Cooke, accompanied by other Lodge Officers, visited St Bartholomew’s Hospital in Central London to present a cheque for £3,000 on behalf of the Lodge members to support the extraordinary work of Professor Thomas Powles. 

Barts Cancer Institute, under the leadership of Professor Nick Lemoine, and Barts Cancer Centre, under the directorship of Professor Thomas Powles, are driving through experimental therapies, increasing survival rates for patients with very complicated cancer cases. 

Barts Charity recognises that vital philanthropic gifts, such as the Ronaldshay Lodge donation, help push the boundaries of cancer research with potential national and international benefits. Professor Thomas Powles has already delivered outstanding results in his recent bladder cancer trials, with survival rates increasing by 40%.
