The annual Clan Line reunion will take place at The Liner Hotel in Liverpool on Wednesday 2 October 2024 and is one of the last remaining reunions to be held by a former major UK shipping company.
The event welcomes all former employees, spouses and partners, both seagoing and shore staff of the British and Commonwealth Shipping Company. If you sailed in any of the British and Commonwealth Shipping Company line's vessels, or meet the above criteria, please come along.
The reunion consists of a three course lunch, bar refreshments and raffle, and is generously supported by the Cayzer Trust Company. In excess of 100 former employees, spouses and partners attended last year's event.
We look forward to welcoming all our former shipmates to this year's reunion, especially first timers. No walk-ups, you have to be registered on the invitation database to attend.
For further information and to be added to the invitation database, please contact Catharina Smith at Catharina.Smith@Caledonia.com or +44 (0)7740 403 037.
I look forward to seeing you all there.
Dave Tyler
