Babcock on board as new Mayflower 400 sponsor

Nov 12, 2019

In November 2019, Babcock was announced as a national sponsor for the Mayflower 400 programme, which commemorates the historic journey of the Mayflower, the Pilgrims, passengers and crew to North America.

Commenting on the international engineering company's sponsorship of Mayflower 400, Charles Hackett, CEO of Mayflower 400 said: "Babcock’s support for this historic commemoration will enable us to deliver memorable events to mark this moment.

"They have a genuine link to both the programme and the international nature of Mayflower 400 that makes them the perfect partner for Mayflower Week."

Mike Homer, MD of Devonport Royal Dockyard, added: "As a trusted support partner to the Armed Forces for more than 100 years, and the fact that we operate out of the largest and one of the oldest dockyards in Western Europe, Babcock is perfectly placed to be working closely with the Mayflower 400 team to commemorate this important landmark in maritime history.

"It is hugely significant, not only to the city of Plymouth, but more widely across the UK, as well as internationally, and we are delighted to show our support."
