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.

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.

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.

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

[Birkenhead Sea Cadets @BirkenheadSCC]

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.

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

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
