The Annual National Service for Seafarers

https://www.theseafarerscharity.org/get-involved/the-annual-national-service-for-seafarers

17:00-18:00 Wednesday 9 October 2024

Join us at St Paul’s Cathedral for an opportunity to commemorate and celebrate all seafarers from across the maritime profession

This year, we are honouring the 200th Anniversary of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) and the 50th Anniversary of Women’s International Shipping and Trading Association (WISTA).

The Service has been held most years since 1905 and is our opportunity to recognise, celebrate and express gratitude to all seafarers across the maritime professions.  The service is open to all and the congregation is made up of representatives from all sectors of the seafaring community including the Royal Navy, Merchant Navy, fishing industry, nautical colleges, maritime youth groups, veterans’ associations and those who support them ashore.

We do hope that you, your family, friends and colleagues will be able to join us.
