⚓ **A Fantastic Visit to HMS Somerset!** 🇬🇧

A huge thank you to the crew of **HMS Somerset (F82)**, a Royal Navy Type 23 Frigate, for welcoming some of our cadets aboard today and giving them such a fantastic tour.

The cadets had a brilliant opportunity to see first-hand how the ship is controlled and operates, gaining an insight into life at sea and discovering just how busy life on board can be, even when alongside in port!

The crew were incredibly welcoming and friendly, taking the time to chat with our cadets about their individual roles, their experiences in the Royal Navy, the opportunities their careers have given them, and answering the many questions our cadets had.

Experiences like this are invaluable, inspiring our young people and giving them a real insight into the opportunities and challenges of life in the Royal Navy.

Our sincere thanks to everyone aboard HMS Somerset for making us feel so welcome and taking the time out of their busy schedules.

We look forward to seeing you on parade this Sunday!

**Thank you, HMS Somerset!** ⚓

A huge thank you to BBC Radio Somerset for taking the time to interview two of our cadets, Chloe and Seb. 💙

It was fantastic to hear them speak so confidently and passionately about what being a Sea Cadet and Royal Marines Cadet means to them, and to share their thoughts on the importance of Remembrance Sunday and what it means to them personally.

A special thank you also goes to Nick, our Vice Chair, for his inspiring words about the difference the Cadet organisation makes to young people. From building confidence and resilience to developing teamwork, leadership and life skills, our organisation offers so much more than just learning to march!

We are incredibly proud of Chloe and Seb for representing our unit and grateful to Nick for highlighting the positive impact cadets have on young people's lives.

Could you help make a difference too?

We are always looking for new volunteers to join our team and support our unit and its cadets. There are lots of different ways to get involved, including:

⚓ Uniformed Instructors
⚓ Non-uniformed Instructors
⚓ Unit Management Team roles

You don't need to have previous experience or knowledge of the Sea Cadets. What matters is enthusiasm, a willingness to get involved and a desire to help young people develop and achieve their potential.

Whether you can give a little time or a lot, your support can make a real difference!

Thank you again to BBC Radio Somerset for helping us share our story and shine a spotlight on the amazing opportunities and experiences being a cadet brings.

Proud to be Sea Cadets! ⚓💙

Our Cadet interview can be found on the link below at around 0735. Please enjoy

Well done to our Mayor’s Cadets. You continue to make us proud.

Congratulations to all those who received well-earned promotions, recognising their hard work, commitment, and leadership within the unit. A special mention must go to one of our Junior Sea Cadets, who was awarded the prestigious Commodore's Pennant for their outstanding achievements. An incredible honour and something to be immensely proud of! 👏

We were also delighted to present several Good Conduct Stripes, recognising cadets who have consistently demonstrated commitment, reliability, and dedication to both the Corps and our unit.

In addition, a number of cadets were awarded specialist qualifications and badges, covering a range of subjects including Mechanical Engineering and First Aid. These achievements reflect the wide variety of opportunities available within Sea Cadets and the hard work our cadets put into developing new skills.

A huge well done to every cadet who received an award this month. Your dedication, enthusiasm, and determination continue to make us proud. We look forward to seeing what you achieve next! ⚓🔵🔴
