Charity
The work of the Vintners’ Foundation, the Company’s charity, aims to support charities, predominately in the Greater London area, which provide assistance to those suffering from alcohol dependence, and their families.
Education is a key area of the Foundation’s work especially where those affected are from deprived backgrounds.

Wine Trade
The Company is fortunate among Livery Companies, not only because its ancient trade continues to flourish but also because over 30% of its members are drawn from its trade.
Close contact is maintained with all wine trade organisations and it is the Company’s policy to provide both material and financial support for the trade. Particular emphasis is placed on the maintenance of professional standards and the encouragement of trade education through scholarships and bursaries.
Swans & Swan Upping
The Vintners’ Company’s ancient right to own swans dates back over 900 years and the annual event of ‘Swan Upping’ takes place in the third week of July. Originally this was a way of allocating ownership of swans, a prized bird eaten at many feasts.
Ownership was a sign of status and importance, but now Swan Upping is about counting and checking the health of the birds as well as educating people about the importance of Swan Upping and swan conservation.
