On Saturday 1st February 2025, many chapters of the Widows Sons Masonic Bikers made their way to the Presidents Ball Fundraiser. This event was held at the Norton Park Hotel, located near Winchester. Members of the Worcestershire chapter travelled with their partners for an enjoyable evening filled with companionship, delicious food, entertainment, and fundraising for worthy causes.
The evening was a resounding success, and we are delighted to confirm that over £6,200 was raised through donations that will be utilised to support charities that champion good causes.

Members of the Worcestershire Chapter of the Widows Sons, under the leadership of their President "Monte" and Charity Officer "Tweezers," made a visit to Campbell Lodge where they conducted two presentations. The first presentation, delivered by the President, offered an overview of the Widows Sons Masonic Bikers Association. The second presentation, given by "Tweezers," focused on the Worcestershire First Responders, which has been designated as the charity for this year. Additionally, the visit provided an opportunity to hear an engaging account from one of the members regarding his experiences and the history of the Royal Yacht Britannia. We also extend our gratitude to the members of Campbell Lodge for their generous contribution. Read more about the visit and Campbell Lodge here..

Fund Raising For Good Causes
Locally and Nationally
Blood Bikes Fund Raiser
Andy "Monte" Philpott (President) 25-06-2024
Widows Sons Worcestershire Chapter WSMBA and Worcestershire Pear Drops, finally got to present the blood bike at Prescott Bike Festival, raised through the chapters fundraising. In June 2023 the chapter decided to make Severn freewheelers our charity of the year and set an ambitious target of raising enough for a new bike during the next 12 months.
Amazingly we did this in just 8 months! supported by donations from Worcestershire province and the Masonic Charitable Foundation (MCF), but the majority by the chapter members and by members giving lodge talks who all gave generously we raised the amount of £20,000 for a new bike.
A proud moment as president, and fantastic achievement by the chapter now in its 3rd year.
