Incorporation Of HammermenRegistered

The Incorporation has from its inception sought to promote the maintenance of high standards in all forms of metalworking and to support the needy amongst its Members and their families. With the abolition of the privileges of the Burghs of Scotland and the extension of free trade, the Craft became a charitable organisation. Today, it continues to support Members and their dependents in need, to promote excellence in craftsmanship and design in all aspects of metalworking, to encourage engineering education and craft related careers for young people, to promote engineering in all its branches as a worthy occupation, and to support charitable purposes primarily connected in some way with the Craft and its origins.
