New Online Exhibition - 'Ten pound Poms'

 

P&O has had links with Australia since 1852 and early migrants to Australia travelled on P&O's branch service via the Cape in the early 1900's to 1930s to new lives 'Down Under'. 

This exhibition focuses on the British migrants that emigrated to Australia on P&O ships, post war from the 1950s on the new 'ten pound Pom' assisted passage scheme.

View the exhibition to find out more about the scheme, discover which P&O ships travelled to Australia carrying emigrants and get an insight into the life of the migrants themselves.
