The Martek team had a great day of dress up on Friday when
we took part in raising money for Seafarers UK.
Our crew dug out their best pirate and sailor costumes,
paying £2 for the privilege, and competed in the Nautical Friday Quiz.
We’re pleased to report we raised a total of £129 for a
great UK charity, supporting seafarers and their families through times of
difficulty and hardship.
Seafarers UK (King George’s Fund for Sailors) has been
helping seafarers since 1917, growing to be the leading charity in the maritime
field. The money raised will help maintain a reasonable quality of life to the crew
and their families of the Merchant Navy, Fishing Fleets, the Royal Navy and the
Royal Marines. All money raised for the charity will help to provide accommodation,
clothing and education for those in need. They aim to provide training to
people of any age to prepare them for work or service at sea, promote safety at
sea and efficiency and effectiveness of the maritime charitable sector.
After sending our best pirate jazz hands photo to
@seafarers_UK, we were ecstatic to announce we won the #NauticalFriday best
photo competition! We look forward to receiving our treasure!
