BECOME A FRIEND IN DEED
We need Friends to support Wherry Yacht Charter Charitable Trust, which was established in 2002 with the aim of protecting, restoring and sailing the three wherries Hathor, Olive and Norada, whilst keeping them together as the only remaining fleet of Wherries. The Trust is supported by a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF), which requires the public to have access to the boats and for them to be utilised for environmental education. The Trust purchased the boats in July 2006 and now needs your help to secure a future for these unique historic craft. Join us to help preserve the only remaining fleet of Norfolk wherries

| HERITAGE LOTTERY FUNDING AND WHY WE NEED YOUR DONATIONS |
|
|
|
The grant from the HLF of £492,000 (which included the money to purchase the wherries) is only approximately one third of the total amount that needs to be spent on the project over the next five year period. In order to claim £1 of grant we have to find an additional £2 ourselves to match fund it. Your support is vital to the success of the project. Your subscriptions and donations provide vital cash flow, and any voluntary labour can be allocated a monetary value and used for match funding.
