    Revive your Lodge, Grow its membership, Secure its future


    Successful Lodges tend to share several common features. In this exciting new book, well-known author and speaker Tony Harvey draws on his extensive experience in different areas within Freemasonry to identify the key features most often seen in our strongest, happiest, and most attractive Lodges. He then uses his professional expertise in developing organisations and their leaders to outline how brethren can strengthen, even revive, their Lodges. Rather than duplicating other work, Tony indicates relevant material in the Book of Constitutions and in the Members Pathway. This makes this book their essential companion and an invaluable guide to managing Lodges in the 21st century.

    Included is probably the most extensive study and analysis of our membership position in recent years. Building on this evidence base, Tony offers practical approaches to address the principal barriers to success, growth, and sustainability. He writes in everyday language for
    a general audience. This makes this book suitable for Freemasons of all backgrounds who wish to pass on to the next generation a stronger Lodge with a better chance of a successful future.

    With a foreword by the
    Past Deputy Grand Master of the United Grand Lodge of England
    Sir David Wootton

    Tony Harvey

    Tony Harvey is a leadership coach, change consultant, and inspirational speaker. Having contributed to Scouting's development of new and successful approaches to recruiting, training, and managing adult volunteers, he has since applied his expertise to Freemasonry.  He proposed to UGLE the creation of the Members’ Pathway and was its main author.  He went on to write The Seven Habits of Highly Successful Lodges, a guide to rejuvenating and managing lodges in the 21st century, to complement the Pathway. 


    As well as holding Provincial responsibilities for secretarial, mentoring, membership and learning & development, charity and communications areas, Tony has been appointed to several prestigious Masonic lectureships, including the Prestonian Lecturer (2012), Richard Sandbach Lecturer (2013), Peter Churchyard Memorial Lecturer (2017), Cornwallis Lecturer (2018), Mike Baker Memorial Lecturer (inaugural, 2020), Rectitute Essayist (2023).  He is a Grand Officer in the Craft, Royal Arch, Mark and two other Orders.  He has been a Council member of the Royal Masonic Trust for Girls & Boys (RMTGB), a founding trustee of the Masonic Charitable Foundation (MCF), and is currently Chair of Trustees for Lifelites. 


    Tony is a very active and engaging Masonic speaker.  He accepts invitations to deliver his talks to lodges and associations from recognised constitutions in any timezone.

    A very interesting and informative book, based on the authors life of experience and learning in business management and his freemasonry with connections from Lodge to United Grand Lodge. A book that confirms for me that there is a way to ensure Freemasonry remains accessible and useful to the everyday Freemason, building on leadership and management theories as applied to our membership organisation. Well worth a read by any Lodge Secretary, Director of Ceremonies, Mentor, Membership Officer and Almoner as well as Worshipful Masters (current and elect). I found the chapter on Membership Data particularly interesting having been aware of various initiatives to survey recent leavers and ex-Freemasons but never seeing the results or conclusions. A really useful book.
