        Ixion Lodge 2501                                 The Princess Alexandra Hospital Trust - Harlow













































                                 Following the request made by our late Provincial
                                 Grand Master Rodney Lister Bass Ixion Lodge
                                 2501 decided that it would be good idea to
                                 support the local hospital in Harlow The Princess
                                 Alexandra Hospital Trust.

                                 W.Bro Chris Wheeler and W.Bro Mike Saunders
                                 and myself got together and thought it would
                                 be something that The Harlow Centre should be
                                 involved in so we got in touch with 21other units who
                                 met there and raised a magnificent some between
                                 us all of £1025.00 to buy sweets for the front line
                                 workers.
                                  Bro Paul Lavelle then made 15 separate fortnightly trips to
                                 the Hospital with gifts of sweets which he passed on to the
                                   Trust Offices for the front-line staff on behalf of all of the
                                   members who meet at Harlow.

                                   They were so pleased with the way that Masonry at the
                                   Harlow Masonic Centre had supported them they sent a
                                   letter of gratitude together with this Collage showing the
                                   photos of some of the staff who received the gifts.
                                                        This  had  undoubtedly  raised
                                                        their spirits over the many weeks
                                                        that they were required to deal
                                                        with  the  effects  of  the  virus  at
                                                        the hospital.
