Sarah Joiner, former Lady Mayoress of London and Vice Chair of the MS Trust, herself diagnosed with the condition in 1981, attended a thank you evening in the House of Lords on October 16 for recent donors to the MS Trust.

The MS Trust, based in Letchworth Garden City, is receiving £40,000 over two years from The Freemasons’ Grand Charity to fund the development of specialist information for people who are newly diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

This picture shows Assistant Provincial Grand Master Dick Knifton, formerly the province’s Grand Charity Steward, with Sarah, who was delighted to thank the Grand Charity for its support.

The Major Grants Scheme is just one of the initiatives driven by The Freemasons’ Grand Charity which donates over £3 million to national charities every year.
