About Freemasonry
What is Freemasonry?
Freemasonry is one of the world’s oldest fraternal organisations. In England and Wales, it is governed by the United Grand Lodge of England and focuses on:
-
Encouraging personal integrity and responsibility
-
Supporting charitable causes
-
Bringing people together in friendship and mutual respect
FREEMASONRY IS NOT A RELIGION AND DOES NOT REPLACE AN INDIVIDUAL’S FAITH OR BELIEFS.
Members come from all walks of life and join for a variety of personal reasons.

WHY CONSIDER FREEMASONRY?
Men choose to explore Freemasonry for many different reasons, including:
Do you enjoy meeting new people and forming genuine friendships?
Would being part of a structured, well-organised, yet sociable, organisation appeal to you?
Are you interested in supporting local and national charities and giving something back?
Could you benefit from taking time away from everyday pressures and making time for yourself?
Do you enjoy learning from others and sharing experiences with people from different walks of life?
If these sound like you, then you should consider joining Freemasonry and Rowner Lodge would be delighted to welcome you.
Charity & Community
Supporting good causes
Charity is an important part of Freemasonry. Across the country, Freemasons support a wide range of charitable causes, including medical research, emergency services, and local community initiatives.
At lodge level, members often take part in fundraising activities and support causes that are meaningful to the community we live in.
Giving back, whether through time, effort, or support, is a core value shared by many Freemasons.
Who Can Enquire About Membership?
Freemasonry is open to men who:
-
Are aged 18 or over
-
Are of good character
-
Have an interest in personal development and community involvement
You do not need a family history in Freemasonry, and you do not need to know a member beforehand. Many members first learned about Freemasonry simply by asking questions.
