The Trinity House Story
Event Details
The Trinity House Story.
It is an engaging story of royal beginnings, storms and shipwrecks, lighthouse keepers (including Grace Darling, of course!) around the coast of England and Wales, and comes right up to date with what Trinity House does today – with reference to state of the art electronic aids for ships, maritime charity support, and fraternity activities – all either funded by shipping companies or ourselves, as we are the largest British self-funded maritime charity.
