Brethren from around the South Central Area of the Province of Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, together with Representatives from 25 local Charities met at the Masonic Hall, Albion Place Southampton, to celebrate the cheque presentation for 2024.
In total £19,314.95 of donations were accounted for on the evening, this being in addition to the great support the area is showing to the 2027 Festival for the MCF. Charity is definitely the distinguishing characteristic of a Freemason’s heart.
