90 North Foundation is delighted to receive a grant from The Fishmongers’ Company through its Fisheries Charitable Trust.

The grant reflects recognition by the Fisheries Charitable Trust that fishery management of the world’s international waters is becoming an increasingly urgent priority as nations seek to manage often dwindling fish stocks within their respective national territorial waters.

Its support of 90NF breaks new ground with its support of an ocean conservation charity seeking to safeguard biodiversity within international waters, in this case those of the Central Arctic Ocean.

For 700 years The Fishmongers’ Company, one of the oldest Livery Companies of the City of London, has stood on the banks of the River Thames playing a leading role in upholding the standards in the trading of fish and shellfish – a role it continues today, as well as making a significant contribution to the UK fishing sector and other non-fishery areas through its philanthropy, grants and projects with industry, government, academia, non-governmental and third-sector organisations.
