Upcoming fundraising events
Take part in an event or fundraise to help support seafarers and their families at a time of crisis.
The Seafarers' Charity makes a life-changing impact in troubled times. Our donations and grants to organisations support those who work – or have worked – at sea, and their families.
Proactive and forward-looking, we also seek ways to prevent issues becoming problems. Through funding, collaboration, research and advocacy, we tackle the root causes of seafarer hardship and disadvantage in the UK and around the world.
The Seafarers' Charity's Corporate Film
At The Seafarers’ Charity, our vision is to create a world where seafarers and their families are valued and free of need and disadvantage.
For over a hundred years, we have been on an epic voyage using grant funding to support seafarers who risk their lives to supply our nation, taking care of their families during long periods at sea and looking out for seafarers wherever they may be in the UK or the furthest reaches of the Commonwealth.

In 2023, The Seafarers' Charity donations helped us to:
award 67 grants, totalling £2.4m to 50 organisations. More than just money, your donations will transform the lives of thousands of seafarers at home and abroad.
Our new strategy, 'Thrive', is a solution-focused approach. We’re seeking out ways to tackle the core, systemic issues so seafarers can live dignified lives.
The Seafarers' Charity operates three main grant programmes to provide specialist funding to seafarers in need and their families.
