Joining Waterfall Lodge

Warm, open and easy to approach

Waterfall Lodge welcomes men from all walks of life who are interested in friendship, personal development, charity and being part of a longstanding community.

Many people first become interested in Freemasonry because they are looking for connection, purpose, self-improvement, or simply the chance to meet good people outside work and routine. You do not need to know everything in advance. A conversation is a perfectly good place to start.

Start with a conversation

If you would like to learn more, get in touch with the Lodge Secretary and we will arrange an informal first chat. That may be a quiet meeting with a few members or a relaxed social event, depending on what suits everyone best.

Why people join

Friendship

Personal development

Build confidence, communication skills and self-discipline through participation and shared experience.

Charity and community

Support charitable causes and contribute positively to the local community and beyond.

Tradition and belonging

What the lodge is like

The atmosphere is friendly, calm and welcoming. Members come from a wide range of professions, ages and backgrounds, and that variety is one of the lodge's strengths.

We value tradition, but the experience is not stuffy or distant. Meetings, social events and charitable work all play a part, and new people are given time to get comfortable and ask questions.
