theWorkingTools

@grok a feature idea; allow users to set a ‘prompt’ that allows them to tweak their fed algo. Eg “don’t show me any F1 results until Monday”

When membership declines, every Lodge Committee asks the same question: "Why are members leaving?" If you're struggling with retention, give our new blog a read: theworkingtools.co.uk/news/lodge-ret…

The summons went out weeks ago. The deadline for dining was clearly stated. You've sent reminders, confirmed numbers, and probably even started printing out the place cards. Then the messages start. "Forgot to reply, can I book a meal still?" "Bringing a guest tonight, wants to dine too." "I know the deadline has passed, but can I change my meal to a vegan one?" The Festive Board is meant to be a moment of fellowship, not a source of last-minute stress. We know the feeling. It's the constant admin "drip-feed" that adds hours to your week and makes a simple meal feel like a major event. The Working Tools centralises your RSVPs, meal choices, and guest lists, making those last-minute changes far easier to manage. It's about taking the chaos out of the catering, so you can enjoy the evening too. Spend more time enjoying the fellowship and less time juggling messages.

There is a specific kind of pride that comes with being the Lodge Secretary who always has the answer. Whether it’s a quick question about a Brother’s initiation date during the Festive Board, or verifying dining numbers at the bar, being the "Oracle" of the Lodge is a great feeling. But being that organised shouldn't require you to carry a heavy briefcase of ledgers everywhere you go. With The Working Tools, you have your entire Masonic administration right in your pocket. Having member records and Lodge data available on your smartphone or tablet means you can provide answers in seconds, not weeks. It changes how the Lodge views the role and, more importantly, it changes how you feel doing it. Step into the "Admin Guru" role and start your 30-day free trial at theworkingtools.co.uk/free-trial

We have an apology to make. When we built The Working Tools, our goal was to make Masonic administration so simple that you’d finally have your evenings back. We didn’t quite realise that by making you look like an "admin guru," we were making you the most wanted Brother in the Province. It is a common side effect. Once your Lodge sees the professional reports, the seamless event management, and the perfectly organised records, word starts to spread. Suddenly, you aren't just the Secretary of your Craft Lodge; you’re being "headhunted" to be the Scribe-E in your Chapter or the Recorder for the Mark. We can’t help you say "no" to those extra roles, but we can ensure that if you do say "yes," the workload stays manageable across every Order you serve.

@CheshireMasons @DepPGMCheshire @UGLE_GrandLodge @CheshirePgm @DepGSCheshire @ChrisAPGM This looks amazing, would have loved to have been there for the atmosphere alone!

#SundayShowcase Vernon Lodge returned to the Large Lodge Room at Stockport Guildhall for the first time in 28 years, working by candlelight. 🕯️ A superb 1759-style First Degree from the M & MF followed, enjoyed by all. 🍾 1759 installation at Stewards Lodge coming in April. 👀

Happy Burns Night Brethren

@DerbysFreemason This looks fantastic!

👻 The first Porchway Club Ghost Walk was a great success - raising £275 for local good causes! Led by Jack Howie-Clarke & Gavin Aitken (St Werburga Lodge 4147), it was a brilliant and entertaining dive into Derby’s harrowing history l Spooky, social, and for charity 👻🤝
