Our History In 1842 Grand Lodge inaugurated the Royal Masonic Benevolent Annuity Fund (for men), the Female Annuity Fund being set up in 1849. The following year, a Home at East Croydon was dedicated and the Royal Masonic Benevolent Institution (RMBI) was established. In 1955, the Home was transferred to Harewood Court, Hove, in Sussex. In the early 1960's, provision was extended to non-annuitants and, between 1960 and 1985, a further 14 Homes were set up or acquired around England and Wales. Four more Homes have been opened since then, and a large number of people living in the community (including those on the Homes' waiting lists) receive pastoral care visits from our Care Advice Team. The RMBI employs over 1500 full- and part-time staff and support more than 4000 beneficiaries: 1150 residents in our 18 homes and a further 3000 people living in the community.
