A Freemasons group has made another charitable donation to a community good cause.

Beeleigh Abbey Masonic Lodge, based in Maldon, made a cheque presentation of £250 to St Peter’s Hospital Café.

Freemason Martin Harvey said: “We, as a lodge, felt after this donation was proposed by one of our members it was a very worthy cause to donate to this awarding winning café.

“Not only does it serve excellent food but also provides comfort, companionship and support to the elderly, lonely and vulnerable people and families within the local community.

“This could not have been made without the generosity of personal donations from members of Beeleigh Abbey Lodge.”

The group selects several local charities to donate to each month.
