The money had been raised from the Lodge relief chest, alms collections, raffles and additional amounts from both the Ladies’ night and other events. These amounts were increased by a further £2000 from the Provincial Grand Charity.

Ann Green, Chairman of The Well Charity, said,

“I would like to thank both Petriburg Lodge and Provincial Grand Charity for their generosity. This money will be put to good use and represents a substantial part of our annual running costs. It will give us a good start for the current year.”
