THE CRAFTSMEN – PROVINCIAL COMMUNITY NEWSLETTER

The history of the Newsletter

The Craftsmen newsletter started as a way for the Ross on Wye Masonic Community to stay in touch during the first Covid-19 lockdown. First published on 6th April 2020 and sent out weekly for fifty five issues. Providing useful community news including local shops with online delivery services and other useful information.

Ross on Wye Masonic community got behind the initiative by contributing articles and regular features. Which allowed Brethren to share their creative hobbies and pastimes, enabling us to learn a lot about each other and our hidden talents.

Success lead to A WIDER DISTRIBUTION

Success of the Newsletter attracted not only a regular local following, but also the attention of the Province. As a result the November 2020 Newsletter moved to a Provincial level taking in a wider audience across Herefordshire. It is now distributed across the Province via email and published here on the Provincial website.
Now a monthly newsletter, it contains an eclectic mix of news about members of the Province and features which we hope will be of interest and keep you entertained.
