Captain Sea Cadets

How it started.....how it is now. Tomorrow is my last day as Captain @SeaCadetsUK and my last day in uniform with the @RoyalNavy It's been an amazing 33 years career and a huge privilege to lead such an incredible team through the pandemic in my final role.

A lovely day on the River Soar today. Went past 2 brilliant @SeaCadetsUK units @SeaCadetsLeic and Loughborough Sea Cadets. The boats all looked great and I loved the Bofors. @Captain_SCC great that these units are on the River supported I am sure by @CRTBoating #boatsthattweet

@kejamieson_ @SeaCadetsUK Kate, this is part of the @VCCcadets brand and is based on the RN cadets umbrella logo. @SeaCadetsUK branding remains unchanged.

Am I missing something? Saw this on a website this morning. Are @SeaCadetsUK rebranding?

A lovely message from a parent. "Scott's Sea Cadet BTEC have given him enough points added to his A level results to go onto his History Degree @Liverpool University". One of the many real differences Sea Cadets make in low demographic areas. 😊 @Captain_SCC @SeaCadetsUK @CVQO

@ColCadetsSW Very much deserted.

Great to see the ACF National Colonel Cadets after his OBE investiture today. Well done him. Richly deserved.

Fantastic final unit visit as CSC catching up with the cadets of @clydebank @SeaCadetsUK who I had met last year on zoom. Sad to be saying my final farewells to so many amazing and inspirational cadets and volunteers. #proudcaptain #gonnamissthis

Today is #InternationalDayofFriendship thanks to @middchaddscc, @Captain_SCC, @hms_tamar for #SeaCadet shared experiences. UN General Assembly proclaimed this day in 2011 with the idea that friendship between peoples, countries, cultures & individuals can build bridges.

@seacadets @USSConstitution What a great venue. Best wishes from over the ponds.

Mark your calendars for a first-of-its-kind event for the @SeaCadets. Tomorrow, we will promote our Sea Cadet Chiefs on board the historic @USSConstitution. The Cadet Chief Pinning Ceremony will be streamed on Facebook Live at 9:00 a.m. Wednesday, July 28. facebook.com/SeaCadet.CPOMe…

Brilliant to hear the work of @SeaCadetsUK On the Water programme highlighted in the House of Lords debate today on CADET FUNDING, including Lord Boyce and Lord Mountevans emphasising the contributions by @SteliosPhilFdn @CapitaPlc and the Gosling Foundation

What better way to cool down after an evening of #Kayaking and #Rowing than a Mexican Wave into the lake. It’s always great to see the cadets having fun like this and encouraging each other to ‘give it a go’ too. @SeaCadetsUK @SeaCadetsNW @CrosbyBoatStn @SCCMerWest @Captain_SCC

We're looking for partners to help with manufacturing for our new upcyling project. We're working with the @RoyalNavy to turn disused and decommissioned items such as life rafts and fire hoses into products. If you're interested, contact bob.field@rnrmc.org.uk for more info

Emotional farewell to eastern area @SeaCadetsUK today & a heart warming visit to Nottingham Sea Cadets. Great to meet some incredible young people & catch up with the amazing volunteers who make it all possible. @NottinghamPost @BBCNottingham you have a real jewel on the trent

Great to join @TootingBalhamSC tonight for the presentation of the long overdue SRMO trophy for most improved @RoyalMarines cadet detachment. A really impressive team of volunteers delivering life changing opportunities through @SeaCadetsUK #whatwedo

How to make rope - the traditional way! Inspirational visit to @DockyardChatham to discuss the RN’s relationship with this outstanding museum. Go and visit! @medway_council @HMS_Medway @Iain_Lower @BrigJkFraserRM

Great to back visiting @SeaCadetsUK & remembering to take #selfies. Tonight @MalvernSea thanking volunteers, find out about the experiences of the last 18 months & what cadets are most looking forward to. Encouraged that so many have already filled out our survey #gladtobeback

Wishing our amazing Organisation a very Happy 165th Birthday! Although TS Starling is a spring chicken at just 78 years young, our parent organisation Sea Cadets turns 165 today. @NorthWestRFCA @MerseysideACF @MerseysideWing @Captain_SCC @rmcsso

Happy Birthday Sea Cadets 🥳⚓😊 @Captain_SCC @SeaCadetsUK

Today is #ThankATeacherDay. We're fortunate to work with some incredible teachers, instructors, assessors, mentors and of course our VQOs, who constantly strive to provide the best opportunities to our young people - thank you! @ArmyCadetsUK @SeaCadetsUK @aircadets @CVQOChiefExec

1/ During a visit to @HMSCambria Secretary of State for #Wales @Simonhartmp presented Cadet James from #Penarth @SeaCadetsUK with a @WOCarlSteedman challenge coin. Cadet James earned this coin by asking the best question during a Q&A session during his visit to Wales. @UKGovWales

@CVQO @ArmyCadetsUK @SeaCadetsWHBS @aircadets @stjohnambulance 🤞

This month we would normally be gearing up for our Westminster Award lunch at the House of Lords. We're doing things a little differently this year but hope that when September rolls around, we will be able to celebrate! @ArmyCadetsUK @SeaCadetsWHBS @aircadets @stjohnambulance
