Additionally, MCF is partnering with Hospice UK to develop and extend bereavement support services in hospices.
 
Contributions from Freemasons to hospices have exceeded £13m in England and Wales since 1984 and are continuing to increase at a rate of £600,000 a year.
 
David S Pratt, the Provincial Grand Master of the Province of Yorkshire West Riding, said: “I’m very pleased we’ve been able to assist these 15 hospices.
 
“They do an outstanding job helping people with terminal or life limiting conditions, as well as supporting their families through very difficult times.”
