The Trust is Conway’s successor, indeed is Conway continued. It maintains the same objectives by offering full sponsorship to a limited number of young men and women each year who become ‘Conway Cadets’ to train as Deck or Engineer Officers. The Trust is a registered charity and is run with the co-operation of the Chamber of Shipping of the UK. The Trust is governed by a Board of Trustees some of whom are Old Conways whilst others are drawn from the shipping industry.
