Medway Queen Receives Great News!

 Following the Members open day to welcome the Medway Queen back to Gillingham the Society has received very welcome news resulting in the New Medway Steampacket Co being able to rescind many of the notices issued to employees a short while ago.

Medway Queen Preservation Society announced today it was able to retain two of its instructors and a total of 4 apprentices and 1 trainee following Medway Council and the GMB Union offering to sponsor an apprentice.
The Medway Queen Preservation Society wishes to express their sincere gratitude to Medway Council and the GMB union.

A spokesman for the society said this is excellent news and will enable us to be able to proceed with the project to restore the Medway queen at a faster pace than would otherwise have been possible.
