Excellent news, Birmingham Sherbourne have been awarded an Armed Forces Community Covenant Grant towards refurbishment of the Unit.
Work will commence during the week beginning 23rd June and continue for approx. 5 weeks. Our contractor W.Barratt is experienced in refurbishment and repairs of schools and is well placed to deliver the project in the time allowed and to a professional standard. Repairs to the roof, girls dorm, toilets and showers, staff toilets and showers, and boys dorm and major works to the boat deck will provide better facilities and accommodation for both staff and cadets.
Stop overs will not be possible during this period but parade nights and waterborne training will continue as normal.
Grateful thanks to the staff, cadets and Sam who volunteered to support the fundraising efforts for St Mary's Hospice on Saturday 21st June. Sherbourne was approached by the Hospice to provide cover to direct visitors for car parking and on such a hot day too for a such a worthy cause, well done everyone.
