25/26 ➡️ 26/27 🩵 As we bring an incredible 25/26 period to a close this month, we’ve been looking back at some of the memories that made it so special.

From the big moments to the little ones, the celebrations, the challenges, the laughs and everything in between, what a period it’s been! 📸✨

At the heart of it all is what matters most: growing young people, creating opportunities and helping them become the very best versions of themselves… 🌱

A few snapshots from 25/26 as we look ahead to a brand-new chapter in 26/27.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of the journey. Here’s to the memories we’ve made, and to everything still to come! ⚓️

⚓️ OPERATION BLUE ROUTE - THAT’S A WRAP! ⚓️

What a week we’ve had! 👏

Our cadets have been out and about, taking on new challenges, exploring, getting stuck into activities and making memories along the way.

From early starts to busy days, plenty of laughs and a whole lot of adventure, Operation Blue Route has certainly been one to remember! 🧑‍🍳🚆🧗

And, most importantly… we’ve made some unit history! 🎉

This was Oldham Unit’s first Summer Camp - and what a way to do it!

📸 Here’s a look back at some of the best moments from the week. We’ll let the pictures do the talking…

Swipe through and see what our cadets have been up to! 👀👇

😂 ONLY PEOPLE PAST AND PRESENT FROM OLDHAM UNIT WILL UNDERSTAND…

You could be anywhere in the building…
Someone suddenly shouts:

“WHERE’S THE KEY FOR 21?!” 🔑😂

And instantly, everyone knows exactly what they mean. No explanation. No context. Just pure panic! 🤣

Years later and those words are still burned into our brains…

After 4 long days, our refurbishment of the Aft Corridor and Rear Accommodation Room is finally complete! 🎉

What a transformation - hard work, long hours, and a great result! 💪✨

Day 3 of our regeneration has been another productive day!

We’ve been applying the final touches to both our Aft Corridor and one of our accommodation rooms, bringing the transformation ever closer to completion! 🎨🫟

The new door signs are now being installed, adding a fresh, professional finish to the upgraded spaces. It’s been fantastic to see the progress over the past few days, and we’re looking forward to revealing the completed project tomorrow! ⚓️
