## **Maritime Heritage Trust Review of 2022-23 (6 June 2023)** As for many heritage organisations, this has been another year of challenge. For MHT the first priority was to complete action from the Tournay Review and diversify and renew our Board and engage with the wider issues affecting maritime heritage. We were delighted to welcome new Trustees Delphine Jasmine-Belisle, Hannah Hurford and Cat Holt who bring a range of experience in developing the heritage sector, working sail and communications and nautical archaeology. During the year we were also pleased to co-opt John Evans who brings a focus on the history of small boat and dinghy sailing and the need to safeguard that heritage alongside larger vessels. Recognising the need for a wider approach in July we published a Vision Statement htps://maritmeheritage.org.uk/ inspired in part by the global Maritime Cultural Heritage Manifesto and the UN focus on the sea with the 4 goals of: “Engaging more people; Developing Heritage Harbours; Engaging with environmental and sustainability challenges and Representing our Members’ issues and concerns. These are high expectations but, in our view, all necessary. However much we love to see heritage vessels still sailing, it is increasingly clear that they will not survive unless they can serve community needs, generate new friends and play a wider role. This is why we have made a major commitment to the Heritage Harbours project, working alongside National Historic Ships and Historic England. Although we suffered the sad loss last June of our Trustee Brian Corbett who did so much to promote the concept, after many Zoom sessions, we are now at the point of announcing the first national network of Heritage Harbours with a newly expanded MHT website which includes details of individual locations. The reason Heritage Harbours are so important is that they can provide and support the whole picture – places, buildings, environments, local facilities and related businesses as well as skills and traditions which help keep a vessel visited, understood, enjoyed and kept in operation. But often some of these are under threat; we need to find ways of using the idea to help protect and support those elements which are at risk. Of course our members also need practical support and on 1[st] February we organised another in our MHT/NHS webinar series on fund-raising with presentations, on crowdfunding by Rose Ravetz of htps://www.windtdeandoar.com/ and on NLHF grant by Felicity Lees of htp://www.pioneerck18.org/ The webinar is at htps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nICP5Ve74s0 We had the benefit of Victoria Wallworth, working with us part time, helping deepen our understanding of member issues with several online “coffee mornings” and we intend to continue these. Please contact us at info@maritmeheritage.org.uk if you would like to take part. Looking ahead, a big change is underway within European Maritime Heritage as it moves from a lead national member model (MHT has been the lead UK member for 25 years) to an open membership. This is an important organization for gaining recognition of maritime heritage and we will be keeping members posted on this new direction. Finally, I would like to thank our members for their support and also our continuing Trustees – Maddie Phillips, Ship-keeper (and engagement manager) on the Cutty Sark, Richard Albanese, who represents the steam sector and helps our social media campaign and in particular Trevor Godbold who in addition to acting as Treasurer, Membership Officer and webmaster is often our main point of contact with enquirers. Without his input MHT would not exist.
