A Day at the Supreme Grand Chapter Convocation

Freemasons’ Hall in London provided a distinguished backdrop on 12th November 2025 for the latest Supreme Grand Chapter Regular Convocation, drawing Companions from across the country for a day of enjoyment and friendship.

Representing Leicestershire and Rutland was the Head of Royal Arch Masonry in the Province, Noel Manby, accompanied by his Deputy Jonathan Varley, and members of his executive team, Philip Dodd, and Andy Green. Their attendance, supported by a strong delegation from L:eicestershire & Rutland, highlighted the Province’s commitment to the Royal Arch and its continued engagement promoting "one journey, one organisation" with the Craft.

One of the standout moments of the day was an insightful presentation on the Masonic Housing Association, an organisation that provides sheltered accommodation for those in need across the country. The talk emphasised the far-reaching social impact of Freemasonry, illustrating how its core principles translate into meaningful, practical support for communities nationwide.

Beyond the formality of the event, it was also a chance to reconnect, share experiences, and enjoy the camaraderie that makes these gatherings so special. For everyone who attended, it was more than just a convocation; it was a great day out.
