Charity Team Structure

LODGE CHARITY STEWARD

The office of Lodge Charity Steward is the most crucial part of the charity structure. The Charity Steward has regular contact with the members of his Lodge and is, therefore, the best placed to encourage them to live up to their charitable obligations to the fraternity in particular and the community in general.

The Charity Steward of a Lodge is an extraordinary person indeed. He must be tactful, discrete and able to keep records, prepare and submit accounts while at all times maintaining confidentiality. The amount contributed by a member is not known by other members of the Lodge. No pressure is applied at any stage; donations must be given freely, and Charity Stewards recognise that members’ financial circumstances vary. Indeed, a member’s resources will probably change over his lifetime.

The Provincial Charity team supports and assists the Charity Steward in carrying out these duties.
​He is also responsible for promoting West Riding Masonic Charities Ltd (WRMCL).

PROVINCIAL CHARITY ASSISTANTS (PCA's)

Provincial Charity Assistants keep in regular contact with the Charity Steward of the three or four Lodges allocated to them, offering guidance and support as necessary to assist them to fulfil their responsibilities.
​PCAs are members of their Area Charity Committee.

AREA CHARITY CHAIRMEN

The 5 Areas of the Province each have a Charity Chairman who is part of the Provincial Charity Steward’s team, serving on the Provincial Charity Committee. 

Their primary responsibilities are to support the Provincial Charity Steward, chair the meetings of their Area Charity Committee and support their team of Provincial Charity Assistants.​
MEET THE TEAM

PROVINCIAL CHARITY STEWARD

The Provincial Charity Steward has overall responsibility to Provincial Grand Lodge for the collection and control of monies raised for West Riding Masonic Charities Limited (WRMCL).

His key duties are:
​
  • To provide training for Lodge Charity Stewards and members of the Area teams.
  • To monitor the income from its various sources and report information as necessary.
  • To provide support and assistance to Lodges.
  • To liaise with the Provincial Almoner and WRMCL for the benefit and improvement of charitable giving within the Province.
  • To chair the Provincial Charity Committee and support each Area Chairman providing assistance as necessary.

The Committee assists the Provincial Charity Steward to fulfil his obligations by offering advice and practical help.
The Provincial Charity Committee is assisted by the Chairman of YWRMAL John B Gledhill and the Committee Secretary, Robin Goldring.
