The Society was founded in 1857 and granted a Royal Charter in 1950; since its foundation it has maintained a Home at Belvedere, Kent, for aged and infirm Merchant Navy men of all ranks and ratings, and has recently erected a new home to replace the old, with accommodation for 130. British Merchant Navy officers and men are also assisted by the award of pensions and grants when aged and in need. Separate funds exist for assisting widows and dependants of men who lost their lives in the two world wars and to those who were disabled as the result of such service.
