Maritime Foundation
For anyone not in close contact with the maritime community, it is difficult to understand how important the sea is to all the things that we take for granted. As an island nation, Britain is dependent upon the sea and maritime trade is the bedrock of our economic well being and security.
The Maritime Foundation established the annual Maritime Media Awards in 1995 to engage the media in raising public awareness by recognising journalists, authors and programme-makers for excellence.
