The Cause
The UK Antarctic Heritage Trust cares for and maintains the Antarctic's historic buildings and special places through conservation and advocacy. At Base A, Port Lockroy, we welcome visitors to explore the museum, visit the world's southernmost post office, observe the penguin colony and share the wonders of the white continent’s history. Along with our arts, education and events programme, we bring together people from around the world to learn about Antarctica's past, present and future.

Support our work Protect Antarctica's heritage
Every membership and donation we receive helps our expert teams deliver vital conservation work across the heritage sites that we preserve. Without your support, sites of great importance in Antarctica's history could quickly deteriorate, taking with them historic artefacts, tales of scientific advancement and human endeavour that inform how we, as a global community, view and value Antarctica today. With your help, we can continue to conserve this special continent to ensure its protection for years to come.

Follow a unique colony at the end of the world
The gentoos of Port Lockroy are perhaps some of the most famous penguins in the world! The colony made their home with us on Goudier Island over 30 years ago and we have been studying and contributing to their protection ever since. Inquisitive, fluffy and funny, we love sharing their activity with everyone around the world.
