AYRSHIRE YOUNG MASONS
The Ayrshire Young Masons is an association of young and new Freemasons within the Province of Ayrshire.
Brethren who have been raised, and don’t exceed our upper age limit of 44 years old or are within their first 5 years in the Craft meet our eligibility.
We continue to work closely with the neighbouring Province of Kilwinning therefore Brethren of the Mother Lodge of Scotland (Lodge Mother Kilwinning No.0) meeting the eligibility criteria, can also join the AYM.
The association is ran by a Committee, details of these roles can be found on the AYM Committee page.
The dedication of the Committee is extremely important, together we organise charity events, fundraisers and social activities where all our members can attend. An up to date list of events can be on the AYM events page.

​
We organise activities for Young Freemasons within three distinct categories;
Social - Social events include going for drinks, and organising full-blown suppers or activity / entertainment nights. We also encourage members to visit other Ayrshire Lodges, as a way of meeting with fellow members in the own Lodges, and socialising afterwards.
​
Educational - Lectures are a useful tool to help strengthen members knowledge and understanding of Masonic subjects - these are organised regularly throughout the year. We are helping to create mentorship programmes, so that Brethren benefit from support / advise from experienced members of our fraternity, as the progress through their Masonic journey.
​
Charitable - Charity is one of the fundamental teachings of Freemasonry. Therefore, the AYM association will work hard to raise funds in order to disperse to charities and deserving causes within our local communities- Freemasonry can play its part in building community, and re-introducing The Craft to the wider world, in a positive and exciting way!
