Stella Maris is delighted to invite sick, retired and active seafarers, fishers and their families from the UK and EU to join the charity on its inaugural Stella Maris Lourdes Pilgrimage, from 25 – 30 May 2026.

This pilgrimage brings together those who have lived and worked at sea or in fishing communities, offering time to pray, reflect, and find renewed strength in faith and fellowship.

All major costs are covered: travel, accommodation, and meals will be provided for participants and carers.
