The Phyllis
Tuckwell Hospice received a donation of £300 by members of Yateley Lodge
9107 after the 30 members of the organisation chose their specified charity.
This Year’s Master of Lodge Mr Robert Yeomans said “The Hospice makes a
significant contribution to the community and after collecting tremendous
sums for our own Masonic Charities we decided that other local charities
should be included too. The Phyllis Tuckwell Hospice was chosen because it
affects each and every person within the community in one form or another
and it is important to show our gratitude to the service that the Hospice
provides”.
