Order of Women’s Freemasons group raises £1,200 for Marie Curie cause
The Bridlington Marie Curie group has been given a major financial boost, thanks to the hard work of the town’s Order of Women’s Freemasons.
Several members of Lodge St Mary's Priory got together for coffee and to present Eileen Johnston, Marie Curie fundraising group member, a cheque for £1,200.
The money was raised by the ladies of The Order of Women's Freemasons at social events over the past 12 months.
A spokesperson for The Order of Women's Freemasons said: “Fundraising events over the past year included a Christmas coffee morning (an always a popular event), a psychic evening, an evening of Irish musicwith the local musicians ‘The Shenanigans’, and a summer coffee morning.
“The Lodge Master for the year, Jane Farrant, also raised another £1,200 which will be donated to other Masonic charities.”
