We
need your help!
The collections of the Paddle Steamer Preservation
Society have been built up over the past 50 years. But, we need
help to expand our educational role and would welcome help in
the following ways.

Donations
of Material
Can
you help us to achieve our educational role?
Although we have over 20,000 items in our collection but
we still have many gaps and would love to fill these so
that we can use this material in displays and publications
and for researchers to use..
We are interested in any material that relates to paddle
and pleasure steamers in the UK. Contact us if you would
like your material to find a safe and permanent home where
it will be enjoyed by others in the future.

Tell Us Your Memories
Do
you remember going on a cruise on a paddle or pleasure
steamer in the past? Did you work on a paddle steamer?
What was your favourite steamer?
We would love to hear your memories of paddle steamers
and to see your photographs or film.

Help
with Research
We
receive a significant number of paddle steamer research
enquiries each year.
We endeavour to answer all of these enquiries using our
collection, but there are some that we cannot assist with.
Do you have particular expertise on a ship or operating
company and could help us with enquiries? Let us know
if you would like to do this.

Our Society
The
Paddle Steamer Preservation Society celebrates its Golden
Jubilee in 2009.
Over the past fifty years it has become the UK's largest
and most active maritime preservation society. By joining
the PSPS you will help us to continue with our work of
operating three pleasure steamers as well as promoting
the heritage of these vessels.
