Peter Morrison United Kingdom London I will separately email on my affinity with the struggle to save the City of Adelaide. I also have pilotage planning papers and video left by my late father Capt. AJS Morrison. - Dad was the Master of the "Carrick", as it was named then, for the precarious move out of Glasgow to Princess Dock.
- I shared Dad's passionate conviction that the 'Carrick' has to be saved, but having worked overseas until fairly recently, I hadn't appreciated the dire state of affairs.

In-Kind Donations

A project to transport a rare 145 year old composite clipper from Scotland to the antipodean destination of Port Adelaide requires some unique resources such as:

  • a barge,
  • a heavy lift ship,
  • salvage services in Scotland,
  • heavy lift transport in Adelaide,
  • media support,
  • champions,
  • celebrity endorsement, and
  • a suite of support services.

 

If you believe that you can help and would like to associate your name with an iconic project that will attract worldwide attention, in particular in the United Kingdom and Australia, we would be delighted to hear from you.

Old Parliament House in Canberra is being developed into a Museum of Australian Democracy. One of the new galleries being developed Living Democracy: the power of the people examines how people shape society by participating in formal and grassroots democracy. A central section of the exhibition will explore twenty examples of Australian petitions - from the 19th Century to e-petitions. As an example of the newest form of petitioning, the e-petition on this web-site is planned to be featured. Read more >>
