Caring for seafarers, the unsung heroes of global trade
We serve as a national lifeline
for crew members who often face long periods of isolation, uncertainty, and hardship while far from home.
I am a Seafarer,
how do I find a port.. or just a helping hand?
I am a Volunteer,
how do I donate, volunteer, or get involved?
Practical Support
From toiletries and SIM cards to Wi-Fi, transportation, and help with healthcare or legal needs, we make sure seafarers feel cared for and connected.
Mental & Emotional Health
Whether it’s a friendly chat, crisis support, or connecting someone with professional care, we’re here to listen and lighten the emotional load of life at sea.
Spiritual Care
Rooted in compassion and open to all faiths, we offer spiritual support – from prayers and blessings to simply being there when someone needs comfort or peace.
Advocacy & Rights
We look out for seafarers’ rights with onboard visits, help during tough situations like hospital or prison stays, and guidance on fair treatment and safety.
