Where We Work

We deploy our chaplains in Britain’s largest ports, each of which receives tens of thousands of seafarers each year. The majority of smaller British ports are also covered using our large network of volunteer ship visitors who work in port teams with their local port chaplain.

 

The map below shows our current active locations, which you can also download here. To contact our port chaplains directly, please visit our contact page.

Welcome to 2010 the Year Of The Seafarer. We hope that in this special year we will be able to continue and expand our work with seafarers and ask for your continued support to enable us to do this. Apostleship of the Sea relies wholly on voluntary contributions. We are only able to continue our work through the generous donations of our supporters and volunteers.
