Outside of Craft Masonry and the Royal Arch, there are a number of companion or apendent Orders which Freemasons may wish to join.
Every one of these Orders offers a unique experience to members. They all share a common bond - offering you an excellent opportunity to make an advance in your knowledge of Freemasonry, explore new challenges and build on existing friendships.
Each of these orders have their own requirements for admission, but Companion Orders attract Freemasons from all walks of life, faiths and cultures.
Companion Orders
Mark Masons Hall Orders
Having become a Freemason, many members chose to compliment or enhance their Masonic interests by joining the “Companion Orders”. Mark Mason’s Hall administers ten such Orders and the family tree below shows how they relate to each other.
You can find out further information by clicking on the order badge, or by visiting the Mark Masons Hall website using the link below.
Certain other Orders fall outside the management of United Grand Lodge or Mark Masons Hall.
Membership of these Orders requires certain criteria to be met, and some are by invitation only.
