The Trust offers financial assistance to individuals or groups to carry through restoration or improvement projects to completion. The Trust also invites enquiries about sponsoring one or more Awards.
Peter Vacher - the 2009 Award Winner!
The Preservationist of the Year award for 2009 goes to Peter Vacher. The award is given in recognition of the repatriation from India and restoration to flight of Hawker Hurricane Mk1 R4118, the sole surviving Hurricane from the Battle of Britain in flying condition.
The National Transport Trust makes loans to groups, associations and individuals at advantageous rates for the restoration of artefacts - whether mobile or part of the infrastructure. Applications must be supported by a simple business plan which demonstrates the financial viability of the project. A sample business plan is available on request from the Treasurer.
The Trust does occasionaly make Awards for schemes which further the preservation movement. Again if you wish further information please contact the Treasurer.
