Mission to Seafarers

Charity Partner

Seatrade Maritime is proud to support its charity partner, The Mission to Seafarers. This incredible organisation supports the men and women working at sea and has grown to become one of the largest seaport-based welfare operators in the world.

About The Mission to Seafarers 

The Mission to Seafarers provides help and support to the seafarers who face danger every day to keep our global economy afloat. 

With over 90% of world trade carried by sea, employing 1.89 million seafarers, they offer much-needed practical, emotional, and spiritual support through ship visits, their seafarers' centres, and a range of welfare and emergency support services.


The Mission to Seafarers works in 200 ports around the world, caring for seafarers of all ranks, nationalities and beliefs.

Ben Bailey, Director of Programme

"I am so proud of the partnership we have with Seatrade – one of our long-standing partners. We have a strong shared purpose – together, we unite the maritime industry and support the shipping industry’s most important asset: its people."
