On Tuesday 7th September, 14 Members and 3 Visiting Companions mustered at Redditch Masonic Hall to conduct the Installation of our MEZ, E. Comp. David Crump, who should have been Installed in December 2019 but due to Emergency Hospitalisation, and then the impact of the pandemic, meant that this was the first opportunity to Proclaim the Second and Third Principals and Install E. Comp. David into the Chair. A task which was very well conducted by the outgoing MEZ E. Comp. Frank Walters, PPrGSoj.

It was also unique in that the Founder MEZ of the Chapter and Past Third Provincial Grand Principal, E. Comp. Ian Fothergill, PGStB, PPrGJ, had the honour of acting as the Presiding Officer under the watchful eye of E. Comp. Keith Evans, PGStB, Provincial Third Grand Principal, the Chapter DC. 

On completion of the work in the Temple the Companions retired to enjoy each others company with the usual Tot at a Festive Board Buffet.
