SUMMARY:'The Trinity House Story' by Julian Parkes
DESCRIPTION:Joining us IN PERSON – just turn up\, there’s no need to register\nplease email meetings.syorks@newcomen.com for zoom link \nHave you ever wondered who looks after the major lighthouses around England\, Wales and the Channel Islands? How did they come to be there in the first place? \nIncorporated by Royal Charter by Henry Vlll in 1514\, Trinity House is today a vital part of Britain’s maritime community. In addition to owning and operating lighthouses\, lightvessels\, beacons and buoys to keep safe all mariners at sea around our shores\, Trinity House is called in to mark – and clear if required – wrecks\, help develop state of the art electronic navigation tools for vessels of all sizes to overcome the vulnerabilities of GPS\, and to act as Nautical Assessors in Admiralty Court cases. \nAdd to that a sizeable maritime fraternity which regularly advises on current maritime issues and future opportunities\, and a charitable side that donates in excess of £5m a year to worthy maritime causes\, and you start to get a picture of Trinity House. \nAbout the Speaker\nA Master Mariner\, Younger Brother at Trinity House and Fellow of the Nautical Institute\, Julian Parkes completed a traditional Merchant Navy deck apprenticeship\, when he served world-wide on a range of general cargo vessels.
