The Charities and Heritage Working Group plays a crucial role in elevating the profile of London International Shipping Week (LISW25) through strategic partnerships with charitable and heritage organisations. Tasked with developing and presenting a strategic plan to the Steering Group, the Working Group ensures that the plan is regularly reviewed and adapted to remain effective. This group collaborates closely with maritime sector charities to recommend supporting organisations for each LISW25, fostering meaningful engagement and collaboration. Additionally, the Working Group serves as the central liaison for heritage organisations interested in participating in LISW25, ensuring their inclusion and recommending their involvement to the Steering Group. Through these efforts, the Working Group enhances the impact and reach of LISW25, reinforcing its commitment to maritime charities and heritage.
