The campaign has now expired but it's not too late to support this charity.

Visit the charity's profile
The Manx Viking Project is a registered Charity (Number 1362) and our charitable objectives are: To develop the Island’s first fully interactive Viking settlement on the Kattegat site in Sandygate. To educate about and inspire the use of Viking and other traditional skills, practices, art and culture. Facilitating and supporting other academic, artistic, cultural and community groups to use the facilities for educational purposes and for research to uncover ancient knowledge and preserve cultural heritage. Fostering community development by involving community groups and members of the public in the project. To promote the importance of living sustainably and in balance with the environment and nature.

Story

It has always been a logistical issue to work out how to get the timber from the plantations to Kattegat to start building with, many ideas have been discussed, but the simplest and most cost effective route is to do it ourselves. With that in mind we have found a 2005 L200 pickup for sale, and look to add to that a twin axle trailer so we can move the logs in one step; rather than multiple hops.
