Who can become a Freemason?
Our fraternity has a wonderful history, which dates back more than three centuries. It is one of the world's oldest secular fraternities, a society of men concerned with moral and spiritual values.
Founded on the three great principles of Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth, it aims to bring together men of goodwill, regardless of background and differences.
People might think that to become a Freemason is quite difficult. It's actually straightforward.
The essential qualifications for admission is that you have a belief in a Supreme Being.
It is usual for candidates to be "mature men of 18 years and over"
Suggested Steps:
We advise that you first talk to a family member, friend or colleague whom you already know to be a Freemason. They will be able to explain to you what they can about the fraternity and help you find
a suitable Lodge.
If you don't know anyone at all who is a member, then get in touch with our secretary by emailing secretary@scarbroughlodge7147.co.uk for details on our lodge or you can also email membership@yorkshirenerfreemasons.org.uk, telling them a little bit about yourself and your reasons for wishing to join.
Then arrangements will be made to meet you socially to find out more about you, and to give you a chance to find out more about us.
You would then in due course be invited to meet a committee of members from a Lodge you might be joining, prior to being balloted for membership of that
Lodge.
All being well, a date would then be fixed for your admission.
Contact our seretary secretary@scarbroughlodge7147.co.uk for more information on meeting our lodge.
