Support a Voyage to Find a Home.

Hello, my name is Liz Cullinane and for the past four years, I have been inspired to raise funds for an extraordinary couple, C.C. O'Hanlon and Given Rozell.

At an age when most people have already settled comfortably into retirement, C.C. and Given have been compelled by circumstances to live nomadically, first ashore — in Germany, the UK, Ireland, Morocco, Spain and Italy — then aboard a small, 50-year-old sailing vessel named Wrack. Their slow voyage southwards along the Atlantic coast of Europe in search of somewhere to settle has become a kind of performance art, expressed in the poetic, diaristic prose and photos that turn up daily on social media.

C.C. and Given are far from being 'influencers'. Shelterless ashore, they struggle to stay afloat with meagre finances and fend off the increasing pressures of age (Creed turns 70 this year) and chronic illness. They lack a legal residence anywhere and have neither pensions nor access to banking, social support or medical services.

The simple object of this appeal is to provide support for C.C.'s and Given's uninsurable health needs, including prescription medicines and medical care, and the basic requirements of keeping an old boat afloat.
