In 2023, Hull Maritime awarded 13 community grants to groups and individuals in Hull for activities with maritime links that would include and benefit local people.

The second round of funding has seen a diverse mix of projects and community groups and has reflected Hull’s rich maritime history and the many different ways in which ‘maritime’ is part of our city’s identity.

Congratulations to all of the groups on their projects!
