A CHARITY in Teesside is £1,000 better off thanks to the generosity of local freemasons.
Michael Manning, from the County Durham branch of the Freemasons, presented the cheque to Roger Kingdon, from the Cleveland Alzheimer's Residential Centre, in Thornaby.
The centre is a non-profit-making charity working in the area to improve the quality of life for people with Alzheimer's.
It uses the fund to provide specialist nursing.
Mr Manning said: "Charity is an essential element of masonry."
