Who are we?
We are the Faithful Lodge of Durham, a Freemason Lodge based in Birtley. We meet 10 months of the year and aim to continue the legacy provided by the Durham Light Infantry (DLI). We founded the Lodge on the 28th of October 1983.
Throughout the history of the DLI, they become known as ‘Faithful Durham.’ We continue this leagacy through charitable work, like Teddies for Loving Care, as well as other campaigns, on a local, national, and international level. We develop a sense of community to uplift and support our members, with a dedication to improving the world around us.
