This acknowledgment list endeavours to recognise and thank those people who gave me assistance during my decade of Wilkins Work, and the development of the Wilkins Foundation. It has been a great pleasure to work together with so many people on this project. The names are arranged alphabetically. No titles have been used (sorry to those who have earned them, and have lost them here, but in volunteer work we are all simply ‘people’). Please forgive me if I have misspelled your name, I have tried to get it right. I have used abbreviated first names on many occasions – the names I used to communicate. The way people assisted, or how they helped, or what organisation they belonged to, has not been identified – that would be too much.
Some people listed here, simply encouraged or supported me in meaningful ways, as friends or associates. To everyone who subscribed to the Hello Hello! the newsletter of the Wilkins Foundation, thank you for your readership. Please excuse me if you don’t find yourself listed here and clearly should have been. Having said this, the list is extensive; for it takes a village of bodies, hearts, minds, souls and spirits to raise a voluntary history-focused community movement to the point where it deserves to be assisted, subsumed and transmuted by the History Trust of a State. All credit goes to the life of Captain, Sir George Hubert Wilkins for the inspirations provided from the past, for the future — now:
