Advice and Support team
Our Advice and Support team (AST) offers a free and confidential service for Freemasons and their families.
The AST can help by:
- Talking about financial difficulties
- Assisting with applications for MCF support
- Discussing the best approach to meet care needs
- Exploring how home adaptations and mobility aids can help people maintain independence
- Offering practical advice on education and wellbeing of children
Maximising your income
The AST is a trusted, knowledgeable resource for understanding and accessing benefits, grants, and other financial assistance. They can signpost to state and local authority benefits and services available from other charitable organisations.
Mental Health Support
Members of the AST are not trained counsellors, but we do offer a separate service.
Can we help you?
The Advice & Support Team’s services are available to anyone with a close connection to a Freemason. Those seeking Advice & Support Team support should contact our enquiries team for a referral.
Advice & Support Team Advisers are based regionally throughout England and Wales. Once a referral has been made, a local team member will call to discuss the situation and offer advice on any support or services available. The AST can also arrange a home visit if required.
