Accessibility

HMCS Sackville is made up of a multi-level platform connected by ladders. Visitors with mobility issues may find exploring the ship challenging. This is a Second World War ship and due to the uneven deck and the historic nature of the ship we are unable to accommodate wheelchairs, walkers, and baby strollers.

Tomorrow, 28 November, is "Giving Tuesday". This is a world wide movement and opportunity for people across the globe to exercise their power of generosity and kindness to support their local communities and organizations that make a difference in their lives. HMCS Sackville, in its 82nd year since commissioning, is a testament to the dedication and talent of hundreds of volunteers with one goal in mind: to preserve "The Last Corvette" so that the stories of courage, determination and perseverance of the sailors who served in the Royal Canadian Navy can be told.

Tomorrow is an ideal occasion for members and supporters of the Canadian Naval Memorial Trust // HMCS Sackville to consider making a clear statement of support to the Trust and the ship in the form of a donation. Contributions can be to ship preservation, operating funds, the "Just For The Hull Of It" campaign, in memory of a relative, friend or co-worker, perhaps you would consider the transfer of stocks.

Official tax receipts are issued for donations of $10 or more. Charitable Organization # BN-11883 4720 RR0001
