Welcome to the home of the 67th City of London Livery Company, commonly known as "The Tin Plate Workers". Trade and craft associations have flourished all over Europe for many centuries, but the City of London companies, now collectively known as the Livery, are unique in their survival, number and diversity. The social and economic conditions which gave birth to the original guilds have long since been overtaken by the development of industry and commerce, but the livery companies still flourish today as living institutions. Their survival has been achieved by doing what they have always done: fostering their trade in a wide context, serving the community, and embracing modern skills and professions. Today there are 107 Livery Companies in the City of London. We hope the information here is useful to all our visitors. If you have any comments please do not hesitate to contact us and if you would like further information about how to join the livery simply fill in the form in the "How to Join" section.
