Parachute Regiment Lodge 9315

Beneficentia reaches out

One of the oldest secular social and charitable organisations in the world, modern Freemasonry’s roots lie in the traditions of the medieval stonemasons who built our castles and cathedrals…

The lodge has held several social events such as witnessing the Tower of London Keys ceremony a lady’s festival at a hotel usually outside of London that provides opportunity for our families to enjoy the company that these types of events provide. Importantly we maintain links with the regiment and serving soldiers.

Delve into the rich traditions of Freemasonry as we gather to celebrate our shared values and principles

WHERE WE MEET

Our meetings are held on the 1st Saturday of March, June, September and December, at 60 Great Queen Street, London WC2B 5AZ. they usually start at 11am thus providing members ample time to travel to London to join the meetings.  The June meeting is the installation meeting.

The Parachute Regiment Lodge was consecrated on 5th June 1989. Though named for our Regiment the decision was taken not to restrict membership to serving or former members, though the majority do fit that criteria. Our membership is drawn from a wide range of military, security and civilian backgrounds who all adopt our ethos, to be the best in all that we do…

Engage in enlightening discussions, partake in meaningful rituals, and forge lasting connections with fellow brethren

Carrying on their tradition of taking Masonry into the London Community, members of Beneficentia Lodge and Chapter No 5308, ably assisted by wives and partners, followed up their September Quiz night for locals in London Borough of Enfield by taking over the duties of chief cooks, servers and bottle washers. They were tasked for a night with provision of food for the homeless in the United Reformed Church in Enfield.

The spirit of this Lodge is extremely high as they look forward to celebrating their Centenary in a few short years.  Beneficentia regularly raises money at their quiz nights and Summer BBQ during each year. The Lodge firmly believes in taking London Masonry to the community, not only by donating the money to worthy causes, but also actually volunteering in the local neighbourhood and delivering meals and compassion to those less fortunate – very much the personification of Masonic values. No wonder their logo is a man on a donkey, looking to assist a fallen brother.
