WHAT IS FREEMASONRY?

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.

EVENTS

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.

ABOUT

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…

ARENA

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

Creating an impressive sight one very wet and miserable Sunday, seventy-four bikers, including,
Masonic Bikers of Coborn Lodge, Widows Sons Masonic Bikers Association and bikers from the local
Sittingbourne community took to the road in convoy to pay a surprise visit to the home of three-year-
old and terminally ill Ollie. This was a huge surprise to Ollie who, along with his neighbours was a little
shocked to say the least.

Soon Ollie was up for a ride on one of the HARLEY Davidson trikes! Despite the inconvenience of
pouring rain, no one cared especially Ollie. At the end of the visit Ollie was presented with tee shirts
signed by everyone, a leather bike jacket with his name and badges, and a teddy bear!

The event also raised over £2000 for Ollie and his family to go on a dream Disney holiday.

Unfortunately, Ollie never made the trip to Disney, losing his battle with his illness.
Corbyn Lodge members made the trip back to Kent providing the cortege for little Ollies final trip and
provided support for the family through this difficult time.
