Warship King Charles served on set to be restored after becoming a sunken wreck

A historic warship once commanded by King Charles has spent seven years partially sunk on a British dock.

Volunteers, though, are now fighting to save HMS Bronington and restore it to its former glory. They want the restoration project to begin in the year of King Charles’ coronation, 70 years after the ship's launch in 1953 – Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation.

And with the coronation now just weeks away, HMS Bronington Preservation Trust wants to crowdfund enough money to begin its project to make the former Royal Navy Mine Hunter fully seaworthy again.
