Cadets in the community
Cadets and staff visited Cleveland View Care Home in November to speak to residents as part of the Remembrance Day Events. We have made close links with the Residents and Home after visiting last year and will be visiting the residents again at Christmas!
Pickle Night
The Ship's Company celebrated it's 1st Pickle Night on Monday 4th November 2024.
Pickle Night is naval-themed event that honours the arrival of HMS Pickle in Falmouth, England, after the Battle of Trafalgar.
It has nothing whatsoever to do with gherkins, onions or vinegar, and everything to do with the fastest little ship at Trafalgar! It started as a way to enable 'below decks' Naval personnel to have something equivalent to the more formal Trafalgar Night Dinners held by officers.

FLAMINGOLAND FUN!
Cadets and Adult Volunteers had a fun day at Flamingoland in August as a treat for their hard work so far. The group set off on the Saturday morning on a coach and arrived at Flamingoland for a fun-filled day of rides, animals and ice-cream! We all returned to the unit at 6pm exhausted but having had a brilliant time! Thanks to the late Mrs Joan Connor for thinking of us to donate to too, RIP.
