Through WHOTT several Members have re-established contact after many years and have enjoyed meeting other like-minded people. Some have even been former employees in the transport industry. However, WHOTT is not intended to be an “old boys” association, and welcomes people of any age or gender. There is no prerequisite other than to subscribe a minimum of £30 per year, in return for which you will receive four copies of our house magazine WHOTTs NEWS. You will also have the opportunity to meet like-minded people and no matter how far away they may live, feel part of the extended WHOTT family of Members brought together through the pages of our newsletter and other activities and events. Being a registered charity enables WHOTT to benefit further from the Gift Aid scheme. This means that whatever amount is subscribed, the Trust can claim back from the Chancellor a further amount of money (usually 25%) that can be added at no cost to the donor. |

WHOTT is supported by
several hundred Members who, like you, share in the vision to create
a museum of excellence devoted to the history of commercial road
transport throughout the region. Already many of our Members have
shown their support in a number of ways, freely applying their
skills by contributing time and energy to the various events and
activities performed by the Trust. It provides a number of
opportunities to become involved, including the restoration of
vehicles, managing an important archive collection, writing articles
for our magazine, and marshalling duties at rallies and organising
trips. Production of WHOTTs
NEWS and the management of this website are also performed by
Members.
site where all our functions can
be combined as one in a location offering good access for the public
and where more educational opportunities can be developed. To enable
these things to take place WHOTT has attracted the keen support of
many Members who come from varied and diverse backgrounds. Quite a
number actually reside outside the region, or even overseas, but all
have a common interest in the West Country. Between them they
possess valuable skills, knowledge and experience and many give
generously of their time and enthusiasm. The Trustees regard their
contribution as being significantly important to sustain WHOTT’s
development into the future and to create a museum that is deserving
of the region.
