We raise large amounts of money for charity by holding social events, and these also give members the opportunity to get to know each other on an informal basis. Each Worshipful Master selects, during her year of office, a charity particularly dear to her and often local to her lodge. The money raised during her year is shared equally between the charity and the Order's Charities at Grand Lodge.

Women’s Aid to help fund the assistance given to those experiencing domestic violence. 

 

In 2021 the OWF participated in the NHS Social Care and Frontline Workers' Day on 5th July. Lodges throughout the country held garden parties at 1pm on the day and £15,000 was raised for the NHS Charities.
