Three great principles that are the cornerstone of freemasonry are traditionally described as brotherly love, relief and truth.

Freemasons are expected to practise these principles.

Freemasonry recognises that men and women of different religious or political beliefs can work together for the improvement of society.

Brotherly Love

Showing tolerance and respect for the opinions of others and behaving with kindness and understanding to all people

Relief

Practising charity and care for their own family and the community by charitable giving and voluntary work.

Truth

Striving for the achievement of the highest ethical and moral behaviour and spiritual truth.
