Royal Naval Lodge

Becoming a Freemason means you’ll be joining about 175,000 members throughout England and Wales, as well as Districts overseas.

Membership is open to people from all backgrounds and the organisation’s aim is to empower members to be the best they can be – it’s about building character, supporting members as individuals and helping them make a positive contribution to society.

We have more than 7,000 Lodges, with any man over the age of 18 welcome to join, irrespective of their race or religion.

Here are several ways to become a Freemason. If you don’t know anyone who is a member and that you can talk to, then your first step is to contact your nearest Lodge.

1. Register your interest
   All you need to do is simply register your interest by registering with our Membership secretary.
2. Send us your details
   We will then ask you to complete a short form.
3. A representative will be in touch
   Our membership secretary will then be in touch to tell you more about Freemasonry and answer any questions you may have.
4. You may be asked to attend an informal interview with key members of the lodge
