Seafaring is a very demanding profession. Being far away from family and friends, being unable to leave the workplace and having fewer choices during non-working hours can affect physical, mental and emotional health. For seafarers, whilst on board, the ship is not only a place of work but also a home. 

Wellbeing means a state of good health and fulfilment. It is not just the absence of illness, but also about achieving a positive mental state to thrive and be fulfilled at work. 

This practical guide will offer guidance for seafarers on fitness and diet, general health, personal and social wellbeing, mental health issues, and relationships and communication. With an extensive appendix there is practical guidance to help seafarers with everyday life. 

Easy to read and full of illustrations, this pocket book will be an essential resource to offer support to seafarers to promote a state of healthy wellbeing at sea. 

Key features:

  • General health, personal, mental and social wellbeing 
  • Names of organisations that help seafarers 
  • Appendix with practical advice; exercises and general health advice

If you live in a remote area, a ‘remote area surcharge’ may be applicable when booking your order on with a courier service for dispatch. A remote area surcharge is an additional fee that is added by a courier service for delivery to a remote location. We will always contact you about this should it ever happen, as it is not a fee that applies during the checkout phase of the online ordering process, but you will be expected to pay it should you wish to receive your order.

Orders placed with us will be dispatched within one to two working days. Dispatch is dependent upon the time when the order is received and provided that all goods ordered are immediately available. If any items are temporarily out of stock, we will endeavour to dispatch the complete order within 7 working days. We always endeavour to ship complete orders and try our best not to ship part orders as a general rule, but on occasion this rule may have grounds for it to be broken due to the varying nature of orders received. We will always try our best to communicate the status of your order should any issue arise that we feel you need to be made aware of.
