#OnThisDay, 3rd August 1545, Venetian salvage operators were confident that this would be the day they recovered the Mary Rose, which had sunk two weeks earlier. They may have been a bit overconfident... https://lnkd.in/ehdYBY3F

In between The Mary Rose board meeting and our Trading Company board we managed to take our trustees to meet Anthony Cane at Portsmouth Cathedral to honour the 40 years that had passed since the interment of the Mary Rose crew member, and the anniversary that of the sinking.

Personal post! just warning you, no apologies, somethings need to be shared. The amazingly glorious creature that is Pippa Bostock FRSA made me cry today (which was awkward, as I was in the supermarket, having just popping in for some bread on the way home from a meeting). Not sad tears though, just amazingly privileged proud tears that in Portsmouth I know a network of incredible humans and incredible teams who work together to make Portsmouth such an amazing place to live and work. I wont go into details, but they just made things happen when the normal systems cant quite manage in a timely manner, by going above and beyond, creating experiences for a family in need. The The Mary Rose is a charity, they receive no public funds and have achieved incredible things through determination and persistence by the great team led by Dominic Jones FRSA (he didnt make me cry today but I know he is part of this). They dont just offer a flagship tourist attraction for the city but they also do incredible work to support children and young people, and they ask nothing for that. They do it quietly, not expecting recognition for their community engagement. They are one of the very best examples of the city vision we have, operating with community at the very heart of every action. I have had the privilege of going around the museum in a professional capacity, and I can confidently tell you that it is amazing, and more than you think it is (especially if you are old like me and maybe haven't been in a few years). So I challenge you to go, take your family, treat yourself, support them in any way that you can, because this amazing team are so much more than you expect. Thank you team Mary Rose - you are wonderful humans, and although I already knew that, today was above and beyond. #portsmouth #community https://lnkd.in/eeUNRQjT

Happy Birthday to Alexander McKee, born #OnThisDay in 1918. His passion and determination lead to the search for, and eventual rediscovery of, the Mary Rose. He sadly passed away in 1992. 🖼️ Daily Echo https://lnkd.in/ee6Bgu6J
