About us
Who we are
Merchant Taylors’ Company began as a medieval organisation in 1327. Once linked to the tailoring industry, today we are a network of members from a diverse range of backgrounds who share a passion for community, education and philanthropy.
We are an organisation dedicated to progress, fairness and people. Members volunteer their time, skills and donate to empower a range of charities and support a number of associated schools across the United Kingdom. We help people to achieve their full potential despite life’s challenges. To meet our ambitions, we provide an engaged and driven workforce that ensure we continue to be City leaders.
