Visitors to SMM will be greeted by a crew of Mission fundraisers dressed in seafaring outfits harking back to the 19th century, in celebration of the 160th anniversary of the charity this year.
“The Mission is a fantastic global maritime charity that supports seafarers and their families in times of need, through a wide range of help and assistance,” commented Brise’s md Kai-Erik Clemmesen.“This includes providing communications for seafarers to contact home, running transport services from ship to shore, and managing around 120 seafarers' centres in ports in over 50 countries.”
The Mission also has a stand at SMM where delegates can make donations and find out more about their work, located in the Central Entrance in the Foyer.
