Provincial Grand Chapter had chosen, as its charity for this year, the Clannalba Resource Centre for Autistic Children based at Lammington near Biggar. This is the only centre specifically devoted to offering respite care to these children and their parents in the United Kingdom. The next nearest in Europe is located in Spain.

In September 2003 Provincial Grand Chapter was able to donate over £1700 worth of soft play equipment which has been in constant use since.
This year they are donating over £1000 of swimming pool equipment and flotation aids to enable Clannalba to make even more use of their hydrotherapy pool.
