Best wishes to our Patron, HM The Queen on her 95th birthday today. Her Majesty has been our Patron since 1952, marking her 69th year on the throne as the UK’s longest serving monarch. Have you met The Queen during your time as a cadet or volunteer?

1/ During a visit to HMS Cambria Secretary of State for #Wales Simon Hart presented Cadet James from #Penarth Sea Cadets 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

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. Sea Cadets Sea Cadets NW Crosby Boat Station @SCCMerWest Captain Sea Cadets

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 LFC Online University". One of the many real differences Sea Cadets make in low demographic areas. 😊 Captain Sea Cadets Sea Cadets Cadet Vocational College - the new name for CVQO

A lovely day on the River Soar today. Went past 2 brilliant Sea Cadets units Leicester Sea Cadets and Loughborough Sea Cadets. The boats all looked great and I loved the Bofors. Captain Sea Cadets great that these units are on the River supported I am sure by Canal & River Trust Boating #boatsthattweet

How it started.....how it is now. Tomorrow is my last day as Captain Sea Cadets and my last day in uniform with the Royal Navy 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.
