Moose International in Great Britain
Moose International in Great Britain Association (formerly known as The Grand Lodge of the Loyal Order of Moose in Great Britain) is a fraternal service organisation, which was run by the Grand Council from 1926 to 2013 until it was replaced by the National Management Committee. The current National President is Barry Soley.
The Director-General James J. Davies founded the Grand Lodge at his birthplace of Tredegar in Wales. The aims are the same as the Loyal Order of Moose in the United States, which are to help the orphaned and the widowed. The organisation runs many fundraising programmes for various worthy causes. The British Headquarters of Moose International are to be found in Winscombe, Somerset. There are twenty-six clubs active throughout England and Wales.
