Parachute Regiment Lodge 9315

London Masons support Lifelites CEO in 2500 mile challenge

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

London Masons joined Freemasons across England and Wales to help chief executive of the charity Lifelites – Simone Enefer-Doy – with her quest to visit a famous landmark in nearly every Province in just 14 days in what is probably the wackiest relay ever.

For each leg of the journey Simone will be transported by Freemasons in a variety of weird and wonderful vehicles to raise awareness of and funds for the charity. In London she will meet Simon Duckworth at the start of the Challenge at Freemasons Hall 09:00 on the 25th May. She will be driven in a Black Cab escorted by the Widows Sons Bikers Association 
to Twickenham Stadium to start the next leg of the journey.

On the return leg of the journey on Thursday 6th June Simone will fly across the Thames on the Emirates Cable car, then by Jet boat up the Thames to Westminster Pier, finish back at Freemasosns Hall at approximately 16:45.

The challenge is all in aid of Lifelites, the charity which provides assistive technology for life-limited and disabled children in children’s hospices across the British Isles. The equipment they donate gives these children opportunities to play, be creative, control something for themselves and communicate.

We will be posting photos on our social media during the relay and after the event. If you would like to know more about the challenge, or would like to be involved in some way, please contact us!
