What the charity does
Sailors' Children's Society provides help to seafarers' children after a traumatic event such as bereavement/loss, diagnosis of terminal illness or breakdown of a marital relationship. Help includes clothing and children's welfare grants, respite breaks, emotional support and links to other specialist organisations for additional help. We aim to let children be children during difficult times.
