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 40,000 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.

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.

Can you help us with research?

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.
