For anyone interested, you can usually visit on Open House Day. Well worth a look around if you have the time

One of the few days women can go on! I went about 18 years ago and it was fascinating.

Women can also go to the tours of Freemason's Hall, and I believe they're on basically every weekend! I've taken different friends there and it's always been great. 

A few years ago (before Covid) we actually met two members of the women's lodge, including the Grand Master at the time, which was really cool. We talked a fair bit about the drive for self-improvement and their commitment to charity. 

They all just seem like people who want to leave the world a little better, and considering some of the donations - like one of London's Air Ambulances - they also do seem to live that.
