At the well-attended 2023 Provincial Grand Lodge of Warwickshire annual meeting at the National Conference Centre, Birmingham, on Saturday, 10 June, W Bro Stuart Smith was promoted to Past Provincial Senior Grand Deacon, and W Bro Phillip Benson was appointed Past Provincial Junior Grand Deacon.

A number of Solihull Lodge brethren were present to witness the ceremony and support them on the day.

The opportunity to meet and speak with brethren from across the Province was used to its fullest, and friendships old and new were renewed.
