Donate

Members of the Medway Queen Preservation Society have spent many years raising funds to restore the Medway Queen to full operational use again. We have had the hull rebuilt with the aid of the Heritage Lottery Fund and the European Regional Development Fund. Now we need to fit out the ship and re-commision the machinery. Every penny helps to finish her restoration and there are many ways to help.

FULL AHEAD

Members receive a newsletter, 'Full Ahead', with news of what is happening and articles written exclusively for the newsletter. They have the opportunity to volunteer and work for this historic ship in a variety of roles. Each member will be sent a membership card with a unique membership number.

Volunteering

We are currently looking for volunteers to support our restoration work and would be very grateful for any help. Volunteers are essential to our project and can get involved in many areas, including physical restoration, administration, PR, sales, and visitor services. With more helping hands, the restoration process can move forward more quickly and efficiently. All volunteer roles are rewarding, enjoyable, and vital to the future of the project.
