There are 110 Livery Companies in London – some established many years ago and some which achieved Livery status in the 21st Century. Each of them is a unique philanthropic fellowship, whether ancient or modern and all are dedicated to serving others.

The Pan Livery Initiative and related Steering Group was formed in 2017 to bring the Livery Companies together.
