What is Freemasonry? | UGLE

Freemasonry is one of the world’s oldest social and charitable organisations in the world. Its roots lie in the traditions of the medieval stonemasons who built our cathedrals and castles.


 
Values


 
For Freemasons, there are four important values that help define their path through life: Integrity, Friendship, Respect and Charity. In today’s world filled with uncertainty, these principles ring as true as they have at any point in the organisation’s history.


 
Integrity: Building good people


 
Freemasons are focused on building themselves as people of integrity and membership provides the structure to help achieve that goal.


 
Friendship: Building together


 
Freemasonry provides the common foundation for friendships between members, many of which will last for life.


 
Respect: Building unity


 
Freemasonry brings people together irrespective of their race, religion or any other perceived differences that can divide us as a society.


 
Charity: Building compassion


 
Kindness and charitable giving are deeply ingrained within the principles of Freemasonry and the organisation provides the structure for members to make positive contributions to their communities and various causes.
