PETER HARRISON FOUNDATION TO FUND RESTORATION OF CLARENCE HOUSE
Tuesday 28th August 2012

Peter Harrison, a loyal supporter of Antigua Sailing Week with his 115-foot yacht, Sojana, will fund the restoration of the Governor General's country residence known as Clarence House through his Foundation, the Peter Harrison Foundation.  The Foundation is also a generous supporter of Antigua's National Sailing Academy and is said to have funded the building of the two NSA satellite locations currently being built - one in Jolly Harbour and one at Parham Fisheries.

The Peter Harrision Foundation is known for supporting sporting activites and projects that provide opportunities for disabled or otherwise disadvantaged individuals to develop sporting and other life skills.

Full details of the funding (said to be EC $10 million) and restoration plans for Clarence House are expected to be released by Governor General Dame Louise Lake-Tack in the near future.
