We meet formally 4 times a year and regular social meet ups on Tuesday's. If you have an interest in joining Freemasonry, you have taken your first step in the right direction. Freemasonry can be such a diverse interest and has the potential for a life long affair that gives back continually. The beauty of how Freemasonry works is you only need to commit what you want or can, in time and effort.
Tasks and roles are never forced upon you, Freemasonry will never ask you to place family, work or important interests ahead of what you want to get out of Freemasonry and how you can help Freemasonry in return. Finding a Lodge to join is normally about location and meeting the existing members to help give you that understanding of who, where and when as lodges meet on different days, different locations, and with different goals or aims. If you are interested in joining Freemasonry, the Royal Hanover Lodge would love to help you start that journey. We have a strange saying of 'Ask one to be one' or ' To be one, ask one', which actually translates to that a Freemason will traditional never ask you to join, but we happily talk about the many great aspects of Freemasonry, but will leave it up to you to make that first step. If you live in Middlesex (England) or in a neighbouring county like Surrey, Hampshire, Berkshire, Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire or West London Borough and you are genuinely interested in joining Freemasonry, you should, to avoid any embarrassment later, make yourself aware of the membership requirements below. Of course, if you already know any Freemasons then they too should be able to advise you. Established in 1878, the Royal Hanover Lodge was named to perpetuate the memory of King George V of Hanover and his close connection with our own British Royal Family. We were greatly honoured when the last King of Hanover's son Ernest Augustus, Duke of Cumberland not only consented to the use of the name, but granted the necessary permission for the use of the Royal Coat of Arms as the Lodge's crest. Being Middlesex Masons , we stand uniquely with close connection with our own British Royal Family. This fact is signified by the words "Wappen Seiner Majestat Georg's V Konigs von Hannover. Unter Approbation holen Ministerii des Koniglichen Hauses" which appears on the original crest presented to the founders.
