🚢 TITANIC EXHIBIT 2026! 🚢
Organised by White Star Heritage, the summer showcase was the UK’s largest touring Titanic Exhibition, and we were thrilled to be onsite delivering water safety messages, and fundraising for the RNLI
It featured authentic, non-replica artefacts recovered from the ship and the seabed, including a rare surviving deckchair, personal passenger belongings, and a genuine lifeboat plaque. Visitors entered using a replica boarding pass tied to the identity of a real 1912 passenger or crew member
Pictured are Veronique and Barbara with the captain of the fated liner, Rhody and Gay (longtime fundraising champions) and Dik Barton
Dik Barton was the first British man to dive to the Titanic, completing a total of 22 dives to the wreck, but his involvement went beyond diving; he was also instrumental in preserving and documenting the Titanics story. His deep-sea expertise contributed to the recovery and protection of artefacts that are now displayed in exhibitions around the world, offering people a deeper connection to this iconic maritime tragedy
