We’re on our way to becoming a full livery company and we’d love you to help us get there
Becoming a livery company is a three-stage process. Each new company begins as a guild, and after four years they
can apply to become a company without a livery. At the Company of Communicators, we’re now working
towards the third and final stage: full livery status.
Achieving this will help us to become more active in our charitable giving and support. We’ll also be able to have liverymen.
This will enable us to play a greater role in the life of the City of London and give our liverymen the
opportunity to participate in City events, as well as voting rights for the senior civic offices.
