ADDINGHAM Good Neighbours is making good use of a new wooden shed funded by a grant from the Freemasons of Yorkshire West Riding through their Community Fund, as the result of a successful application by Olicana Lodge.
It is being used as a storage facility for WorkShed which meets weekly on Monday mornings in the Scout Hall at the rear of the Sports Pavillion. The sessions of up to 16 people are led by Ken Edgar and produce a range of wooden items from recycled materials. The new shed will provide the opportunity to produce a wider range of products.
Worshipful Master, David Marshall expressed his delight at the continued work of Freemasonry in being able to help charitable and community organisations.
A spokesperson for Addingham Good Neighbours said: "We are extremely grateful to the Freemasons for financing the new shed, to the Scouts for allowing us to use their premises and to the Parish Council who are the landowners."
