When the car was delivered it was formally handed over by Sir Basil Nicolls (left), chairman of the special appeal committee to the Rev. Donald Cox, the present Seamen’s missionary at Appledore.

‘This gift will make my visiting much easier and will also help me tremendously in carrying out my other duties,’ said the Rev. Cox.
