An excellent festive board followed with speeches to match.

Bridget Crabtree, Storth House Community Centre, Food bank.
West Yorkshire Freemasons paid for the flooring, fridge freezer, and the vouchers as you know, she told me that the vouchers made 3 of the mothers who received them cry, as it gave them chance to do a shop and feed their kids over the Easter holidays etc, so it definitely worked Bridget said, my grateful thanks to the Freemasons for making this possible with your very kind and generous donation.

Another fabulous evening at Armitage, the Passing ceremony on Brother Eugene Corporal, well done Eugene.
However we now have 3 Fellowcraft to progress and after our recent success of undertaking a double Raising Ceremony the lads asked can you do a triple Raising, but of course came the reply.
So 5th February 2026 at 6.30 pm come and join us, breakfast and lunch the following day included.
But seriously we omit a part of the ceremony for the following month so as not to have a very lengthy meeting.

What a wonderful evening for our newly initiated Brother James Brown.
We had the pleasure of WB Frank Taylor present the Ancient Charge as Armitage Lodge was 1 of the successful Guage the Rulers winners . An excellent evening for all involved with 44 in attendance, 24 being guests, a busy evening for us.
As well as an Initiation, we had the pleasure of presenting a bible to Bro Charlie Duncan on the recent birth of his daughter. Interestingly this was last done in 1995.
