THE Provincial Grand Lodge of Mark Master Masons Devonshire has made a £10,000 donation to Children’s Hospice South West.

The money which will go to fund a new medical emergency equipment store at the charity’s Little Bridge House children’s hospice at Fremington, near Barnstaple was raised through the Devon Mark Charity Association’s 2022 Project, a celebration of the centenary of the association.

The new store will enable care staff to store specialist equipment for children with a range of complex care needs, meaning families will not need to bring all their equipment when they go to stay.
