Brigg Freemasons mark member’s 100th birthday

Friendly reception greets visitors at Grimsby Freemasons’ Open Day
September 9, 2024A pair of intrepid bears from the Freemasons’ Teddies for Loving Care charity have helped two Lincoln men walk coast-to-coast to raise £500.
Philip Crabtree of Minster Lodge No 8702 and his friend Mike Arnold did the hard work on behalf of the bears, who, like a whopping 3.5m others just like them, are given to children to help them through tough times in their lives such as hospital appointments. The money will be used to buy more bears, says Graham ‘Teddy Man’ Cadel, who co-ordinates the scheme in Lincolnshire.

Phil Crabtree and the bears pause for a rest
The bears after seeing how far they were going to walk
And then seeing which way it was…
The brave teddies set off past Wainwrights Stones…
… and reaching the Alec Falconer memorial…
… they decided to take a well-earned rest…
… before deciding what to have for breakfast the next day
