Charity

We remembered Brother Commander Bob Hawkins with a sportsmans dinner, raising £4700 for local charities.

Lodge St. Margaret celebrated its sesquicentinnial year by making donations to 23 local good causes.

Lodge St. Margaret donated £150 to Dalmeny Primary School

Lodge St. Margaret ended this session with a fitting eulugy and tribute to Bro Richard Buffery, followed by a silence in token to departed merit. The raffle raised the fine sum of £300, which will be donated to the Edinburgh Childrens Hospital Charity, a charity close to Richards heart. A donation of £650 was also made to Dalmeny Primary School, helping to send disadvantaged children to school camp. Lodge St. John Mid Calder 272 captured the Travelling Trowel with a large and distinguished deputation. 

The members of the Lodge sent boxes of chocolates to the Scottish Ambulance Service.
