And now for some good news…
We missed the chance to celebrate the good news: Duckdalben, ICMA member the Deutsche Seemannsmission’s seafarers centre in Hamburg, was hailed as the Seafarers’ Centre of the Year.
Jan Oldmann and his team received this well deserved accolade at the annual ICSW Seafarers Welfare Awards ceremony held on December 12th in Geneva.
There is little doubt that Duckdalben’s excellence in caregiving is typical of many ICMA centres around the world. And those seafarers’ centres that are not quite there yet are inspired by what the Duckdalben Team has achieved.
Congratulations to Jan and the guys at Duckdalben. You deserve it!
