FORCE were incredibly lucky to have received a cheque for £3,000 from the Devonshire Freemasons.
Rather than working on buildings like the masons of old, today’s Freemasons focus on building themselves as people of integrity. Whether participating in events, fundraising for a charitable cause or volunteering for public or community organisations, service is at the very heart of Freemasonry. Our members make valuable contributions by donating time, resources and skills.
This amazing donation helped start off our GDB campaign for 2024!
