The work of the RLSOI continues today from offices in Liverpool where regular committee meetings are held to discuss the progress of the children, where also, grants are approved and plans are formulated to maintain the future security of the institution.

There is a small team who implement the decisions taken at these meetings. Regular family reviews supported by local caseworkers and likeminded sponsoring organisations, ensure our work is correctly channelled to deliver the best possible results. Outcomes remain measured by both improving household circumstances together with the educational success and general wellbeing of children throughout their formal academic years. The team encourages family dialogue and post beneficiaries to share their stories and ongoing successes.

Within our maritime community, it is regrettably all too clear that despite social welfare, there is a need for the Institution to help resolve the fears and anxieties of households following bereavement and lost household income.  The Royal Liverpool Seamen’s Orphan Institution is here to help you with each enquiry considered on its own merit. You have nothing to lose by making that application and we know the children will have everything to gain.
