Reopening of South Georgia Museum

That this House welcomes the reopening of the world’s most remote museum in South Georgia; notes that a small all-female team, including Shetlander Helen Balfour, has travelled 8,000 miles to Antarctica to open the museum for the first time since the Covid pandemic; notes that around 15,000 visitors are expected to visit the island during the tourist season; supports the efforts of the South Georgia Heritage Trust; and recognises the legacy of generations of seafarers and explorers from across Scotland and the Northern Isles in particular in the Arctic and Antarctic.
