Freemasonry in the English and Welsh Constitution begins with “The Craft”. It is from here that Freemasonry has evolved and you need to be a member of the Craft to be able to call yourself a Freemason. It is governed by the United Grand Lodge of England, based at Freemasons’ Hall, Great Queen Street, London. They also oversee the sister organisation, Supreme Grand Chapter; under which the Royal Arch Degree is worked. Having become a Freemason, many members chose to compliment or enhance their Masonic interests by joining the “Companion Orders”.
There are many companion orders, each offering a unique experience whilst sharing a common bond. They offer an excellent opportunity to make a daily advancement in your knowledge of Freemasonry, explore new challenges, make new friends and build on existing friendships.
