Help Preserve the Balmoral

The Balmoral is a classic motor excursion vessel built in 1949 and is the last of her type in the U.K.. In service until 2017, she has since been moored in Bristol Harbour and is used for educational purposes, as a meeting venue and is open to the public on certain days. She is still capable of moving under her own power and is maintained by a dedicated team of volunteers who work on her two days a week. The charity has a medium-term aim of returning her to service.

We are looking for:

More trustees with the drive and ambition to help achieve the charity’s aim and improve the current utilisation of the ship. Maritime experience is not necessary and we would welcome someone with good organisational ability, and/or experience in accountancy, fund-raising or organising events.

Time Commitment:

Meetings of the current 5 trustees take place bi-monthly by Zoom but further input would be anticipated.
