We are currently fundraising for a unit minibus. At present staff and parents drive the cadets to various events but this is inefficient and sometimes difficult to organise. A minibus would help the staff plan the cadets activities confident in the knowledge that transport will be available and of course the cadets would prefer to all travel together especially on the longer journeys to places such as Plymouth or Portsmouth.
So far the committee, staff and cadets have managed to raise £3,500 through various fundraising activities such as bag packs at the local supermarket but need to at least double that amount before the unit can look to buying a 2nd hand minibus.
If you can help in anyway we would really appreciate it. The Sea Cadets not only develops young people and teaches them to behave responsibly, the organisation gives a real sense of purpose to all those who are involved.
Apart from direct donations to the unit you can also help us by using our online shopping link at www.eduPayment.co.uk there is no extra cost to you and all the well known suppliers are available from this site. Please make sure you select Brentwood Sea Cadets before making a purchase. Thank You.
