Today we say farewell to HMS Bristol who lowered her flags after 47 years of service. HMS Bristol was the only Type 82 destroyer ever built for the Royal Navy and saw active service in the Falklands in 1982, prior to being converted into a harbour training ship.

We will remember them. #LestWeForget #PoppyAppeal #EveryPoppyCounts

Happy Diwali from everyone at the Royal Navy

Today on Christmas Eve enjoy the #RoyalNavy’s rendition of ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas. “Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!”

Chaplain of the Fleet, Reverend Martyn Gough, shares his Christmas message and reflects on 2020. “This Christmas we will celebrate in quieter and more reflective ways. But the light that shines through the darkness, we hope, will bring this pandemic to an end soon.”

Merry Christmas from all of us at Redditch and Bromsgrove Sea Cadets!
