The UK Chamber of Shipping and its members are committed to continuously reduce shipping’s footprint on the environment and protect it for present and future generations. 

The UK government is to set in law the world's most ambitious climate change target, cutting emissions by 78% by 2035 compared to 1990 levels.

The UK Chamber of Shipping has launched a new Practical Guidance for Shipping Companies on Improving Mental Health.

New guidance provides details of what shipping companies can do to help employees both at sea and ashore.

The UK Chamber of Shipping, the trade association for the UK shipping industry, has worked closely with the cruise industry for over six months developing new Framework documents for cruise ship operators to implement new measures with enhanced public health protection.

The UK Chamber of Shipping is delighted to launch our 2021 Journal.

It has been a remarkable year for the shipping industry and the Journal looks back on everything the Chamber has achieved, but also looks ahead to the opportunities for us and the wider sector. In the Journal you can read the thoughts of our President John Denholm, the reflections of CEO Bob Sanguinetti and the view of the government with an article from the Shipping Minister Robert Courts, as well as many more pieces from the whole team.

International shipping is committed to reducing its emissions, that is clear. In the last few months, around the world, we have seen differing views on how we get there. But on Tuesday the UK government, for the first time, included shipping emissions in their next Carbon Budget, which covers the amount of greenhouse gases the country can emit between 2033 and 2037.

The UK Chamber of Shipping has today launched its new information and guidance document for UK passenger ferry operations during COVID-19. Members can access the document here 

The document, which is available to all UK Chamber of Shipping members, has been developed in consultation with industry partners and members of the Chamber.
