🌊 Welcome to #Dover! SailLink's arrival marks a significant achievement in connecting the UK with Europe through sustainable travel, bringing a new dimension to crossing the Channel. ⛵ We wish the team all the best with the upcoming pilot phase and can't wait to see the first season in action next year 🌍
SailLink arrives in Dover! I don't think many boats are relocated from the south of France to Dover but this one has been and it's one more step towards launching a new travel connection between the UK and Europe. We're now completing the work to gain commercial certification with the aim of running a pilot phase in October, ahead of a full launch and first full season next year. If you're in Dover please drop by. We're very close to the new lifeboat station. If sailing's your thing then perhaps even help with a first test crossing to Boulogne.

This week, the Port of Dover team volunteered up on the Western Heights, and despite the hot and humid conditions, they cleared the weeds and shrubs from one of the historic gun emplacements. With the support of WHPS volunteers, they documented the underlying gun carriage remains and laid down weed control fabric. 🌿 This effort was part of the ongoing strategy to restore all 12 gun emplacements, ensuring that these significant historical sites are accessible and interpretable for all visitors. By the end of the day, the transformation was remarkable, leaving the area in a much better condition than when they began. 👏 We are incredibly proud of our team for their hard work, dedication, and commitment to preserving the local heritage. Together, we are not just maintaining history, but ensuring it can be appreciated by generations to come. 🌍 #Teamwork #CommunityEngagement #HeritageRestoration #PortofDover #VolunteerWork
