The seminar will again be held at Bridgend Masonic Hall on the morning of Saturday 13th of September, 2025.
The Provincial Almoners and their Provincial Team will facilitate the seminar and there will also be presentations by Shelley Owen the Business Relationship Manager of The Albert Edward Prince of Wales Court and Mike Martin the Provincial Engagement Manager at the Masonic Charitable Foundation, London.
