Notes to Editors
St Albans Sea Cadets, registered charity 302457. Unit established 1963.
WE AIM TO: Give boys and girls (10 to 18 years) the best fun they’ve ever had – with a serious side too. The unit works hard to be accessible to all youth. We teach life skills from cookery to computers, engineering, first aid, navigation and the art of seamanship. There is also a complimentary Duke of Edinburgh Awards program.
TRAINING: Fit for life. There are sports and outdoor activities (eg kayaking, shooting, windsurfing, sailing, drill, camping/survival, first aid & orienteering) to get involved in and they will be able to impress their friends with newfound skills, make new shipmates and put their talent to the test. And there are opportunities to take trips on Royal Navy ships, sail before the mast aboard the Sea Cadet’s square rigged flagship TS Royalist, attend training camps or fly in a Navy helicopter.
LOADS TO DO: At St Albans Sea Cadet Unit there are lots of friendly faces waiting to welcome participants aboard. The officers and instructors are all highly trained to make sure every aspect of Sea Cadet life is enjoyed – a cut above the local youth club.
WHEN AND WHERE: The Training Ship St Albans is located beheind the pool at Westminster Lodge, AL1 2EH. They meet twice a week on Tuesdays and Fridays from 7 to 9.30pm.
WHY
JOIN: Why do young people join
the Sea Cadets? Because they want to
do something worthwhile. Because they
want to belong to the best youth movement
around. Because they want to invest in
their own community and make the most
of what the new millennium may bring.
Because they want to meet the challenge
of the future with the motto – Ready
Aye Ready.
