Sign our petition to help save SS Robin - we desperately need your support to ensure the world\'s oldest complete steamship survives. After five years and hundreds of thousands of hours of volunteer work to restore this maritime jewel, the project has created a unique centre for visual literacy, working with disadvantaged young people in East London. We need to ensure the ship isn\'t scrapped, or threatened by major developments such as Crossrail. If you believe our heritage should be preserved, and you want to support the work we\'re doing, please sign our petition now.
I honestly stared at the screen for a solid ten minutes just processing that so many people actually care about this old boat because sometimes it feels like I am shouting into the void. It is wild to think about the ship surviving those massive developments while all these new people are suddenly paying attention to the hull and everything we built. Maybe we actually have a shot at keeping this piece of history floating after all.

My grandad worked on ships like this. You cant just let history be scrapped for a train track. Keep the SS Robin where it belongs.
