£1000 National Historic Ships Volunteer Award

[carlt]

Received this email and thought it worth publicising in the inland world:

 

Dear friends

 

Do you have a family member, friend, or colleague, who is making a contribution towards the conservation or operation of an historic vessel? Would you like their time, work and effort to be rewarded?

 

Perhaps the person you have in mind is a trustee, or helps as a crew member, trainer, or is very hands on within the workshop. Maybe he/she has been working to restore and preserve the vessel throughout their lives investing many hours into the project.

 

You might like to consider them to be nominated for our Marsh Volunteer Award, a new award that we are presenting for the first time this year for a volunteer, or group of volunteers, to recognise and thank them for being an outstanding volunteer(s). There is an overall prize of £1,000 (donated by the Marsh Christian Trust) to be spent as the winner(s) chooses.

 

We hope that there might be someone, or a group of people, that you would like to put forward. To read more about the Marsh Volunteer Award, please click here and complete the application form that you will see under the heading 'How to enter':

Best wishes
