Have now got a search set up on ebay, so no more of our history slips through the net.

The Masonic Charitable Foundation is a major new charity, that has just launched.
The Foundation will take over the work of the four central Masonic Charities, providing a wide range of grants to Freemasons and their families who have a financial, health and care or family need.
The Foundation will also award grants to other charities, medical research studies and disaster relief appeals.
Funded entirely through the generous donations of the Masonic community, the Foundation will have an annual charitable expenditure which places it amongst the largest charities in the country.
The Foundation will be financially strong, well-resourced and able to respond more effectively to the changing needs of Masonic families and other charitable organisations.

Members Of Redwood Support The Foundation Clubs Poker Night
Last month saw The Foundation Club hold its annual Poker Night at Sutton Masonic Hall. This event attracted masons, non masons and even “Aces” a professional poker player from the TV show “Late Night Poker”. Thankfully “Aces” was a gentlemen and taught us a trick or two, without taking our money. There was fierce competition throughout the evening, but ultimately it come down to a show down between myself and Nick the chairman. Nick won! The top three decided to donate their winnings, minus a round, to charity, so with the raffle a whooping £595 was raised for Charity. £555 went to the 2019 Festival and £40 went to support TLC Teddies For Loving Care. Sam from the committee sat this one out, however he was working the floor and got a sign up for mark masonry and another for a past masters lodge. All in all it was a suburb evening enjoyed by all.

Redwood Supports The Crime and The Craft Event Held At Nutfield Masonic Centre
The 24th of March saw 20 members of the Foundation Club ascend Nutfield Masonic Centre including 4 Redwood members , to witness Mike Neville’s latest talk ‘Crime and the Craft’. Mike delivered a fun and informative talk on historical events and his talk covered various crimes that involved Freemasons, either being perpetrators, or who were involved in the investigation and solving of these crimes. It was a fantastic evening, where we all learned something new. The talk was concluded by a quiz and I am delighted to say as Team Captain, that my team paid the most attention and obviously won. We then retired to the bar, held a raffle and raised £100 for Mike’s chosen charity. This is the second talk Mike has done for us and we look forward to welcoming Mike back for another event soon.
