Young people looking to become freemasons: BBC news report.
The BBC reported that people aged 18-34 have a highly favourable view of freemasonry which is a new development in response to the UGLE’s drive to open up freemasonry and to share the benefits more clearly.

One of the USA’s Founding Fathers was a Freemason
This video is an adaptation of a speech given by Benjamin Franklin, one of America’s Founding Fathers who was also a Freemason ( along with George Washington, Paul Revere and many others). This video message is from our Brethren in Maryland, USA. If you have questions regarding Freemasonry you can simply talk to Cholmeley, rather than travel to the USA.
