The Provincial Information Officer now has responsibility for the Provincial website and is charged with the task of updating it. The necessary work is being undertaken by members of the Province and I am grateful to all of those who have volunteered their services. I hope that in time we will be able to find jobs for all of them. Due to circumstances which could not have been anticipated, progress has been much slower than I had hoped, but a substantial start has been made.

The aim of the site is to tell the story of our Province as it is today, but with a glance back to our history and something about our aspirations for the future. As such it should become the prime source of information for members and informative for anyone else looking at the site, whether or not a Freemason. In the medium or longer term it should become a primary tool for communication between members, their Lodges and the Province. It is not intended to give information about Freemasonry in general or second guess primary sites where that information is available, but those seeking further information will be pointed in the right direction by a series of links to other websites.

Some of the pages now on view are temporary. This is particularly so in the case of our Lodges where I hope that we will make much more detailed information available. In particular, if your Lodge has a website and you would like this linked to the Provincial site, please let me have details. The website will have to be approved (ideally it should carry the Grand Lodge Charter Mark) and, presently, I cannot say when it will be possible to effect such a link. If you know of any other Masonic website which might be linked I will be pleased to have details e.g. The Maidstone Masonic Centre has its own site and this will be linked. If you have not yet seen our website, or looked at it since the turn of the year, please do so, and carry on looking!
