The Province of North Wales is broken down into 10 groups, each with a Group Chairman and a selection of Lodges and Chapters that fall into that Group or Area.
For the last few years Group 8 has been shrinking due to Lodges and Chapters closing, or moving to different Halls. During the same time Group 7 has been growing, mostly due to the relocation of lodges from Group 8. It was therefore decided, that since both Group 7 & 8’s chairmen were stepping down this year, that the two groups would merge together and create a supergroup with a new Group Chairman. (It made sense since most the people in the Group were in both groups anyway due to locational closeness)
Since September the new Super-Group has been in existence and this evening a bunch of us met up to plan what we are going to do moving onwards. There are a lot of plans moving forward.
