Armed Forces Covenant

Statement from the Provincial Prior of Oxfordshire, Berkshire and Buckinghamshire, Right Eminent Knight Dean White.

” I was delighted to sign the Armed Forces Covenant on behalf of our order of Knights Templars in Oxfordshire, Berkshire and Buckinghamshire today at Sindlesham Court today. I was very aware that the Craft Freemasonry Province of Berkshire had signed the covenant a few years ago at Sindlesham and this felt the right time to reaffirm our links and recognise the many military freemasons in our Province of Knights Templar. Knights Templar Masonry is a military order which is closely aligned with the values of our Armed Forces. Many thanks also to the Station Commander from RAF Odiham and the Ministry of Defence for their help along with Knight Dougie Leacy for making today happen”

We welcome many military Freemasons into our order and we hope this pledge cements our links”

Statement from Knight Dougie Leacy – Deputy Commander of the Provincial Priors Bodyguard

” I was privileged to lead on this for our wonderful order of Knights Templar in our Province. There are many veterans in Knights Templar who enjoy the ethos and camaraderie of the order. I enjoy the fellowship immensely and the values are something we recognise from our service”
