About this event

The third in the series of three connected Royal Arch talks.

In this talk, E Comp. Harvey examines the journey through the Craft and into the Royal Arch and offers his personal interpretation of ceremony of Exaltation.

He does this through the idea of completion, specifically in the context of the Craft and Royal Arch but with some consideration also given to the Mark.

Among other questions, E Comp. Harvey asks why we appear so concerned to complete something, what exactly does the Royal Arch complete and why do we debate the idea of completion when looking at different Masonic degrees?

This talk is not suitable for anyone who has not been Exalted into the Holy Royal Arch.

W Bro. Tony Harvey, PJGD

W Bro. Tony Harvey has held active roles in the membership, mentoring, secretarial, learning & development, charity and communication areas of Freemasonry.

Tony conceived, and between 2015 and 2020 was the main author of, the Members’ Pathway (see https://b.ugle.org.uk/membership). In June 2019, UGLE’s Pro Grand Master described the Pathway as a “game changer.” In February 2020, one of Freemasonry’s most respected social media influencers called it “one of the greatest innovations to Freemasonry in the last 100 years”. Lodges that have used the Members' Pathway report new optimism about the future, a growth in members and improved retention.

Tony has held a number of Masonic lectureships, including the Prestonian Lecture in 2012 with, “Scouting and Freemasonry: two parallel organisations?”, and has delivered talks in every Province in England & Wales, in a number of UGLE's overseas Districts and in Lodges in other jurisdictions around the world.

Tony's talks and articles combine historical analysis with an understanding of organisational development to promote a forward-thinking approach to Freemasonry, based on the evolution of our Lodge practices while retaining our fundamental meaning and purpose.

Tony is a grand officer in the Craft, Royal Arch and Mark and in two other Orders within English Freemasonry. He is currently the Provincial Membership Officer in Nottinghamshire and the Head of Learning & Development in West Kent. 

Professionally, he is a coach, speaker and consultant specialising in leadership, change and organisational development. His published books and articles focus on his own model of personal and organisational change, the Success Cycle.
