Seafarers UK
Seafarers UK is a large national charity in the United Kingdom working to unite the maritime charity sector to address the specific needs of all seafarers and their families, from those just embarking on a career at sea to those facing distress through unemployment or homelessness and loss of livelihood through accidents at sea.
Seafarers UK is able to use its experience of working with the Royal Navy, Merchant Navy and fishing fleets to raise money and distribute it where it is needed. As an umbrella, Seafarers UK can lead the sector in maximising the effectiveness of its fundraising activities. Over the past 10 years, £26 million has been granted to help those in need of support.
Seafarers UK is the working name for the King George’s Fund for Sailors, a registered charity which has been helping seafarers since 1917.
== Challenge events ==
Seafarers UK runs several very successful challenge events. Their most successful is the 24 Peaks Challenge which has run since 2006. This is probably one of the most demanding and exhilarating mountain events organised as a charity challenge and the ultimate team building experience. In the beautiful surroundings of the Lake District teams of around 6 climb 24 peaks, all over 2,400 feet in just 24 hours. In addition to the physical challenge, each team is asked to raise at least £5,000 which is then used to provide essential support to those in need within the maritime community.
