The Provincial Grand Lodge of Nottinghamshire Freemasons has created a Garden of Reflection within the grounds of the Mansfield college.

Volunteers from the Freemasons have worked on developing the land over the past six months to create a peaceful place for college learners, families and Freemasons to reflect when someone close to them has passed away.

College principal Mark Dale said: “We are very pleased to enter into an enduring partnership with Nottinghamshire Freemasons, who have upgraded and pledged to maintain our lovely Garden of Reflection.
