Provincial Grand Lodge of Suffolk

On 17th October the Suffolk Almoners Conference 2021 took place at Ashlar House with great success, supported by the PGM, DPGM & AGM. Most Lodges were represented (80%), and it was good for delegates to meetup with not only fellow Almoners but Masters, Masters designate, Almoners Designate, Lodge Secretaries and Group Reps. A good number of wives/partners also attended which was lovely to see and much appreciated; and highlighted that being an Almoner is without doubt a team affair.

RW Provincial Grand Master and Brethren. I am pleased to present my report for the year ending 31st December 2020. I am now seven months into my tenure as Provincial Grand Almoner and what an eventful period it has been. The current COVID pandemic has dominated all our lives and meant that I have had to get up to speed very quickly.

Welcome to this first edition of the Almoners Newsletter. I hope that you enjoy the content and learn a little more about the role of Lodge Almoner.
