On Friday 28th July 2017, the Worshipful Master presented a cheque to representatives of the St Johns Ambulance Keighley Branch for the sum of £2,040. The Royal Yorkshire Lodge had supported an application for funding from the Provincial Grand Master’s fund which proved successful. The funds will be used by St Johns Ambulance to replace the aging radios which the branch had been using. These new radios will help better co-ordinate the emergency response at events and hopefully save lives.

The representatives thanked the lodge for their support and said that the funding would be used to help save lives.
