The Mark Province of West Yorkshire has been awarded Grand Patronage of the Yorkshire West Riding 2017 RMBI Festival, for donations it has made over the Festival period.
Donations of £13,000 have so far been made to the Craft Festival Appeal our Charity, the Cleeves and Whitehead Trust, demonstrating the continued generosity of all Mark Masons in the Province to Charity and the close relationship the Mark has with the Craft.
The Patronage comes with the thanks of the Provincial Grand Master and Festival President, R.W.Bro. David S Pratt, and the covering letter from the Festival Chairman refers to it as a wonderful example of how the principals of Freemasonry extend and continue in the hearts of Brethren throughout the whole Masonic fraternity. Long may that continue.
A copy of the Patronage Certificate is shown below.
Well done and best wishes to you all
Jim Steggles
Provincial Grand Master
