We have determined the proper motions of six southern hemisphere radio pulsars using the Parkes-Tidbinbilla radio interferometer. Our observations were made at an observing frequency of 1.66 GHz between 1986 September and 1988 November. The derived proper motions typically have uncertainties of a few milliarcseconds per year, and confirm that radio pulsars are high-velocity objects, that most are heading away from the galactic plane and that there is a correlation between the velocity and magnetic moment. Our results also show that the pulsar PSR 0740-28 did not originate from the centre of the nearby shell of neutral hydrogen emission G241 - 01 + 15.
