The Doris Jones Memorial Lodge No 300 recently met for the first time since 2019. 
The Lodge was formed in 1978 and was set up to fulfil the wish of the late Grand Master, MW Bro Mary Gordon Muirhead Hope, who wanted a research Lodge in memory of Doris Grace Jones. 
 
Doris Grace Jones was a member of Lodge Harmony No 4 and for many decades after the war she worked for the American Relief Society providing invaluable stability to the Society and providing social and financial advice to American citizens in the United Kingdom - many thousands of people were in her debt. 
 
Although not all in attendance to the Doris Jones Memorial Lodge has over 1000 members and meets over two weekends twice a year at various locations throughout the United Kingdom. The recent meeting was held at St Barnabas Masonic Hall in Barnsley, South Yorkshire. 
During the Platinum Jubilee year The Order of Women Freemasons is raising money for charities of which the Queen is Patron. 
Many activities are taking place within lodges and by individual members – congratulations to Bro Keith from Lodge Diligence in Loughton, Essex, on her contribution to the fundraising efforts by running in the Marlow 5 mile run, completing in 49 minutes. Well done! 
Representatives from The Order of Women Freemasons Lodges in Lincolnshire recently attended a memorial service to remember fellow members who had died during the Covid pandemic.

The ladies were guests of the Province at their memorial service on St George’s Day to remember all those brethren from Lincolnshire who had died during the Covid pandemic. 
 
It was an honour for our members to attend. 
The Order of Women Freemasons is delighted to add a new Lodge to their long list of Lodges located throughout the United Kingdom and abroad. The new lodge, Lodge Filey Bay, is number 361 on the Register and was consecrated in Filey, Yorkshire, on Saturday 7th May 2022. 
After the meeting a meal was held to celebrate the occasion of which the new Worshipful Master said “the happiness of the occasion was evident on everyone’s face in the room. It was indeed a very special day and will live in everyone’s memory for all time”. 
 
Lodge Filey Bay will meet five times a year at Filey Masonic Hall.
