Fundraising

As an independent charity, but part of the national Sea Cadets, your support is vital to us.

We rely on the goodwill of our local community and businesses for financial support.

Sea Cadets welcome donations, large or small which can help provide opportunities for our cadets. Your donation can go straight to our Unit or via our branch teams which support lots of Units in a particular region or area. Or you can become a member of the national charity from just £25 a year.

A donation can:

  • - £20 will pay for a life jacket
  • - £50 can help pay for the heating of a unit
  • - £100 will pay for a new set of oars for a pulling boat
  • - £250 will send a Sea Cadet on a week's trip on flagship TS Royalist
  • - £1000 will help make vital health and safety upgrades for a Unit
  • - £2500 will buy a new boat for a unit - which will have a useful life of at least 25 years, serving hundreds and hundreds of cadets.

We welcome larger Corporate donations too and if you would like to find out more about how you can fund the work of the charity nationally please visit: ms-sc.org

ARDINGLY 2012

The units major fundraising event at the South of England Showground at Ardingly took place over the weekend of the 6th to 8th July.

The cadets and staff worked extremely hard marshalling the car parking and selling programmes as well as shaking a few tins at the Ardingly Vintage & Classic Vehicle Show. The weather this year was atrocious with torrential rain on the Saturday. The cadets had to be bussed back to the unit in the early hours of Sunday morning due to the campsite being under 6 inches of water.  This obviously affected the amount of people attending the show this year.

In the past years we have managed to raise just over £1,000 through the collections and programs and it is our major fund raising event for the Unit; This year I am pleased to announce that we collected just over £560. A huge BZ to everyone involved who smiled and worked hard throughout and a special BZ to Staff Sergeant McNeill who did a fantastic job with the cooking.

Next years dates are the 5th - 7th July 2013.

Trinity 500

Back in the summer we purchased a new Trinity 500. I am pleased to announce that we have just received a £2,000 grant from the Headley trust to purchase a second Trinity 500. This is fantastic news as this will enable us to get more cadets on the water rowing.
