Register your interest →The next Ball
Once a year the Province of Surrey Mark Master Masons puts on a black-tie Charity Ball: a drinks reception, dinner with wine, a raffle and an auction, and a dance floor that stays full until carriages at midnight. It is the Province's grandest night of the year, and it is open to everyone.
Members come with partners, families, friends and guests, Mason or not. Every pound raised on the night goes to charities working with young people in Surrey.
The date and venue for the next Ball are being settled. Leave your details below and you will hear before anyone else.

The evening
Last time: £5,500 at Wotton House
On Saturday 24 October 2026 the Province filled Wotton House, Dorking. Drinks at half past six, dinner under the fairy lights, a speech from the Provincial Grand Master, a raffle and an auction, and a floor that stayed full until midnight. The night raised £5,500 for Cherry Trees, Surrey Young Carers and Surrey Army Cadets.

Where the money went

Our charity work →The 2026 charities
The 2026 Ball raised £5,500 for three Surrey charities working with young people. Every pound went to them.
Cherry Trees
Cherry Trees supports children with learning, physical and sensory impairments, and gives their families a real break from round-the-clock care. Day visits, overnight stays and activities at its care facility in East Clandon, near Guildford, help families before they reach crisis point. cherrytrees.org.uk
Surrey Young Carers
Action for Carers Surrey supports unpaid carers across the county, many of them under 18 and caring for a family member. Its young carers service helps them feel more in control of their lives and less alone. actionforcarers.org.uk
Surrey Army Cadets
Surrey Army Cadets helps young people build confidence and learn to work as a team. In the past year its 575 cadets, supported by more than 170 volunteers, have trained in the Bavarian mountains, run camps across the county and helped at community events. armycadets.com
