The three million pound fund is being administered by the Masonic Charitable Foundation, which obtains all of its funding from Freemasons, their families, and friends. It is estimated that half of Freemasonry’s total charitable expenditure of over £33m goes to charities that help people in communities across the country.

Freemasons donate £2,000 Exmouth Sea Cadets

The Cadets need for funding came about after the East Devon District Council terminated the lease of their old building and, due to its very dilapidated state and lack of amenities, this had also restricted the number of cadets able to use the building.

Ian Kingsbury JP, provincial grand master for the Devonshire Freemasons, handed over the cheque to Miles Pomfrett, a trustee of the Dartmoor Pony Heritage Trust.

Miles said: ‘We’re most grateful for this donation which has gone towards the cost of a replacement all-terrain ‘workhorse’ vehicle, making life much easier for our volunteers.
