Chapter of Asaph No 1319 is heading towards its 150th anniversary celebrations next year; and on 17th September 2024 they met at Freemasons’ Hall to Exalt Bro Darren Smith, in the presence of Metropolitan Grand Inspector, E Comp David Ellis OBE.  Comp. Jeffrey Dawkins also became a joining member of the Chapter at that same convocation. The Chapter has had significant growth over the last few years, with three Exaltees and one joining member in each of 2022 and 2023 with this exaltation and a further joining member so far in 2024. There is more very good news in that there are several other Brethren waiting to join. The Chapter has a clear strategy for sustainable growth and without doubt this is proving successful in enriching the experience of its members.
