Freemasonry for Women, founded in 1913 as The Honourable Fraternity of Ancient Freemasons, is a masonic fraternity for women. They have Lodges in the UK and overseas and around 800 members.
They have exactly the same aims and ideals as their male counterparts and have identical organisational structures. Their members are encouraged to practise charity, both publicly and privately and to treat each other fairly at all times.
HFAF are a small but vibrant community of individuals with members of all ages and all backgrounds and all religious beliefs. Freemasonry has evolved over the centuries as a system of moral guidance and education, characterised by allegory and symbolism, enabling its members to follow a common purpose of living a moral life for the good of themselves and society.
It promotes the ideals of masonic brotherhood with special emphasis on three particular benefits for women: friendship, inspiration and empowerment. Being members of a Lodge creates a special bond between women no matter what their background. Friendship is important in today’s increasingly online world where we can often feel isolated and lonely.
HFAF aim to inspire their members to become the best version of themselves possible and in turn inspire those who come after them. Everyone needs a role model in their lives.
HFAF believe that every woman should be empowered by increased self-confidence and belief in her abilities. Taking part in their Lodges and ceremonies provides many opportunities to discover both new and latent talents.
