Answer a few questions about your circumstances and the type of help you are looking for, to find out if it is likely that we can help.
The Freemason must be, or have been, a member of a lodge regulated by the United Grand Lodge of England. The Freemason does not need to be a currently subscribing member, but he must have joined before the need arose.
Please be aware that if the Freemason’s membership is not active, there is a set period of time after the membership ended in which an application can be submitted. Please contact us for further information.
We define those with a strong family connection as a Freemason’s:
- married or life partner
- widow or surviving partner
- divorced or separated partner
- child or stepchild (under 25) in full-time education
- grandchild or step grandchild (under 25) in full-time education
Other relations may also qualify for support if they can demonstrate that a Freemason has provided them with significant financial or physical support.
Those seeking support must be able to demonstrate a need for our grants and services and must pass a financial assessment.
