Young Preservationist of the Year


The Young Preservationist of the Year award is presented to a person under twenty years of age who has already made a notable contribution to transport preservation.

The award not only recognises excellence, but also the profound need to attract young people into the transport heritage movement - if it is to continue to thrive.

The winner of this award receives a cheque for £500.

The Award

To nominate someone for the Young Preservationist of the Year award, you will need to demonstrate a specific achievement in the preceding year.

Our 2012 winner

In 2012 the selection panel decided the Award should be presented to an apprentice in the traditional crafts of boatbuilding, working with wooden-hulled, sail-propelled vessels.
