A Double First for Russell 4413
A very special evening for Russell Lodge 4413 on the the October.
The Worshipful Master David Lloyd-Jones and his officers performed a double initiation for the first time in 12 years.
A fun fact that it was actually David himself who was the last double initiate all those 12 years ago !

W Bro David Weaver has recently been raising funds for the 2026 festival by completing a bungee jump at Larpool Viaduct in Whitby.
This was seen on the provincial website by a recent initiate of Lovells Bury 4018, Bro Alan Cambers, where he made the connection between himself, David and his elder brother John Weaver who is undergoing treatment for bone cancer.
Alan and John were boyhood friends, with David being the seven year old who tagged along with them. That was some 55 tears ago! Time has flown by, but Alan and David were reunited.
A family connection was complete with V W. Bro Nicholas Edwards PDPGM attending as a guest of David, a relative to John by marriage.
