Light Blues Head to London

A fantastic day in London as members from across the country gathered in the Grand Temple at Freemasons’ Hall for the Light Blues Communication, presided over by the Pro Grand Master.

The Grand Temple was filled with Light Blues from all over England, joined by representatives from Scotland and both Women’s Grand Lodges. The meeting focused on how Freemasonry communicates in the modern era and what our newest and also long‑standing members can expect from the Craft moving forward.

Our Leicestershire & Rutland contingent enjoyed an excellent programme of presentations followed by lunch before heading home inspired and energised.

A memorable day for all who attended.

Well done Mark!

A huge thank you to Mark Pierpoint for helping get the Warning Zone van looking fantastic with its new signage. We are incredibly grateful for the support and generosity shown in helping us proudly represent Warning Zone out in the community.

The support we receive from the Leicestershire and Rutland Freemasons Leicestershire & Rutland Freemasons goes far beyond financial contributions. This year they are also supporting our Year 6 E-Safety Programme, helping us educate and raise awareness with around 11,000 young people each year about how to stay safer online, make informed decisions, recognise risks, and know where to go for help.

This support is about so much more than funding. It is about local people and organisations coming together, sharing skills, services, time and connections to help charities continue making a real difference in their communities. Support like helping with our van signage may seem simple, but it is absolutely invaluable for helping us raise awareness and reach even more schools, families and young people across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.

We are incredibly thankful to Mark and to the local Freemasons for their continued support of Warning Zone and the young people we work with every day.
