Cadets from the Unit took part in the District Athletics Competition. A disappointingly small team came a very creditable fourth.

19th July 2013- A Visit from our Unit President
Our Unit President, Alderman and Sheriff of the Corporation of London Jeffrey Evans paid the Unit a visit. The tone was informal and intended as a reward to the Cadets, who had endured a succession of ceremonial events. The cadets were given a spin in the Sheriff's Rolls, this was followed by a fun quiz.

9th July 2013- Royal Navy Inspection
In 1919 the Admiralty, at the request of the Navy League, recognised the 34 Boys Naval Brigades. A condition of the recognition was the requirement for the Units to have an annual efficiency inspection carried out by a serving Royal Navy officer. At the same time the Boys Naval Brigades became the Naval Brigade Sea Cadet Corps- later to drop the “Naval Brigade” part of the title. Ninety four years later……

The inspection involves far more than the ceremony on the parade night. Leading up to the 9th July administrative aspects of the Unit such as health and safety, child protection, training outcomes and so on, are audited. The Unit had an outstanding result from the inspection, receiving the highest award possible. This represented a massive effort from all members of the Unit, but our Commanding Officer, Paul Townsend, must be singled out for his outstanding and enduring commitment to the Unit.
July 2013- District Adventure Training...
The annual Northern London District Adventure Training Competition is a weekend of competitive, outdoor activities designed to test both brains and brawn. Our relatively young and inexperienced team came a creditable fourth.

30 June 2013- Southwark Armed Forces Day Parade
The Unit teamed up with Southwark Unit to march with other cadet, reserve and regular formations. The salute was taken by Sir David Brewer, Lord-Lieutenant of Greater London.
Probationary Petty Officer (SCC) Luke Short said "...the day went very well and the cadets turned out exceptionally well dressed and showed their pride in their uniform while marching. The day was made even better by the great weather".
