On Thursday evening we held our Annual Presentation Evening, celebrating all things from 2024, and with a couple of VIPs in attendance, Southern Area Officer Cdr (SCC) Gary Bassett RNR and Wessex District Officer Lt Cdr (SCC) Lisa Grinter RNR.

Cadets were awarded with new promotions and qualifications from all divisions of the Unit. Followed by a video of our year’s activities and competitions, and then the main Awards.

Congratulations to ALL our Cadets who make us such a great team and to those who came away with the top awards.

That is it for 2024. We now have a break for a few weeks – the only time we do not parade throughout the year. We are back to normal on Monday 6th January 2025. We wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

We are glad to share the news that we have a new Corporal in the Unit. Congratulations to Corporal Oli, who has attended and passed his Royal Marine Cadet Corporal's Promotion Board this weekend.

Today we took the time to remember all those who have given service for their countries in conflicts as part of Remembrance Sunday 2024.

Well done to our Sea Cadets, Junior Sea Cadets, Royal Marine Cadets, and Cadet Forces Adult Volunteers who all turned out for the Remembrance Sunday Parade in Salisbury City Centre. 

We were also fortunate enough to take this time of remembrance to take a photo of the ship's company, alongside two long term supporters of Salisbury Unit, Councillor Mr Sven Hocking, the Mayor of Salisbury, and Dame Sarah Troughton, the Lord Lieutenant of Wiltshire.

Today the ship's company was honoured to take part in the Roya British Legion's launch of the poppy appeal for 2024 at the Salisbury City War Memorial.

The event saw many veterans, serving personnel and local members of the public turn out to mark this event.

Members of the ship's company will be seen over the coming weeks selling poppies throughout the city, so if you pass by please ensure to come say hello!

Two of our Cadets, CFC Finn and CFC Conner were on TS John Jerwood last week. Lots of good photos here, looks like they had a great time.

If any of our Cadets wish to go on Sea Cadet offshore voyages please come and see the Training Officer.
