In today’s episode of Foundation Stone, the Official Province of Essex Freemasonry Podcast, hosts Sam and Paul shine a spotlight on one of the most vital yet often unsung roles in Freemasonry — the Almoner.

We explore how Almoners work quietly and compassionately behind the scenes to support our members through life’s many challenges. From regular check-ins to arranging assistance and connecting Brethren with vital services, Almoners embody the true spirit of brotherhood in action.

This episode reminds us that before we can do great charity work outside of Freemasonry, we must first care for those within Freemasonry. Supporting our members ensures a stronger, more compassionate foundation for all the good we seek to do in the wider world.
