With 137 members and associate members, the Chamber represents over 917 ships of about 26.9 million gross tons and is recognised as the voice of the UK shipping industry. The Chamber works with government, parliament, international organisations and all elements of the maritime cluster on behalf of the sectors that make up the shipping industry (including deep-sea bulk, short-sea bulk, containers, ferry, cruise, offshore support and specialised operators) to ensure the UK's continued success as the global maritime centre and recognition of shipping's contribution to the UK economy."
