The Chapter of Improvement

All Princes, particularly those who are about to take office or who are currently in office, are encouraged to attend the regular meetings of the Chapter of Improvement. The meetings are welcoming and friendly with the aim of enabling Princes to reach a good standard of ritual and floor work. Under the Risings, at the end of each regular meeting, the Princes are requested to volunteer for an office of choice at the next regular meeting or subsequent meetings. If requested, the Second Point can be split for two Princes to participate. Every Prince is given the opportunity to take part. Each ritual Point is overseen by a designated Preceptor, who will give the necessary time to advise and assist each Officer and, if necessary, to prompt as ritual books are not allowed to be open during the meeting. From experience, the Preceptors see improvement in many Princes, who keep a watchful eye on proceedings. The Preceptors are always available at the meetings to answer any queries relating to the ritual of the Order.

Princes, who are unable to attend except on an ad-hoc basis, are also welcome and the Preceptors will endeavour to do their best to assist them.

Please Note:

Due to the Coronavirus outbreak, the Chapter of Improvement is suspended until further notice. Nevertheless, it is hoped that it will re-start on the first Thursday in September 2020 depending upon guidance issued nearer to the time.

Our mission is to encourage and assist members with their Rose Croix ritual
