Save HMS President from destruction and ensure her future preservation.

What the petition asks

HMS President (1918) is one of only three remaining WWI era British warships still in existence. We call upon Chancellor Philip Hammond to grant the £330,000 required to preserve her, without which she may be destined for the scrapyard.
