Freemasons help to raise £11,000 for RBL `Poppy Appeal`

In November 2023, Freemasons from across the Province volunteered to assist the Royal British Legion (RBL) with their `Poppy Appeal` collections.

As a result, it has been announced that an extra £11,000 has been raised from the combined efforts of those collections in Northampton, Kettering, Peterborough and Wellingborough !
