Charity Programme
We believe in giving back to our communities, a commitment deeply rooted in our culture. Our Charity Programme focuses on three core areas - seafarer welfare, environmental protection and education - delivered through long-term partnerships, local fundraising and the volunteered time and energy of our people.
How we give
Sponsorships
We support causes that reflect our values. in 2020, we committed to providing ten years of financial support to three charities, focusing on initiatives that create meaningful, long-term impact.
Local fundraising
We support local initiatives across our offices, coordinated by dedicated staff who lead fundraising and engagement efforts in response to community appeals and events.
Volunteered Time
Employees are encouraged to give back by using one day of volunteer leave each year, offering their time and skills to local causes that matter most to them.
We are proud to support the Sailors' Society's "Wellness at Sea" programme, promoting mental wellbeing among seafarers as part of its global mission to care for merchant crews across 90 ports - helping safeguard lives, improve safety and strengthen the resilience of the maritime workforce.
We are pleased to contribute to the Blue Marine Foundation's Namibian project, which supports the development of a management plan for Africa's second-largest marine protected area - advancing ocean health, biodiversity recovery and coastal community resilience.
We are delighted to support the national Oceanography Centre through the Seagoing Science Bursary, helping aspiring ocean scientists gain hands-on research experience aboard world-class vessels and contributed to vital marine research.
