New feature! Even after all this time, new material reaches us from people all over the world. We'll be putting it on the web site as it comes in. The material will range from news of HMS Dunedin events to information from new contacts. We are even getting new first-hand accounts of the sinking. Have a look at the Ronald Shinn story to start with and Part One of Able Seaman Harold Woodley's story of HMS Dunedin in her final days.

New material added 10 May

Message from Stuart Gill: as some of you will know, I left the UK in 2008 to take up a posting in Australia. This means I shall miss a few reunions, but I will continue to run the website and will stay very closely in touch with the Dunedin Society. I shall sorely miss those of you I won't be seeing for a while, but I know that the enduring strength of the Society will keep it going as a continuing memorial to the men of HMS Dunedin. I will see you all when I get back.

I am operating the web site from Australia. Please e-mail me if you spot any problems (eg missing links, photos etc) and I will repair the damage.
