Friends of LV50 have won the National Historic Ships UK ‘Virtual Flagship of the Year Award’ in recognition of their creativity and resilience in promoting continued online engagement with the LV50 vessel during the COVID-19 lockdown by creating a virtual tour of the ship.
Prior to winning the grant that allowed them to develop the virtual tour for which the award was given, Friends of LV50 received support and advice from our development officer, Marc Johnson on governance and funding, and attended our very popular funding fairs, which allowed them to develop their winning funding strategy. Secretary of the group, Paul Gibson said, “We have always been happy to rely on our CVA for guidelines on good governance and your help is much appreciated to enable us to better run our group.”
