Formby Maritime Cadets say thankyou to Waitrose and the community
Formby Maritime Cadets say a big THANKYOU to everyone who voted for them with the Waitrose green token scheme. They have just received a cheque for £400.
A spokesman for the cadets said: "Formby Unit received a cheque from Waitrose for £400 from their token bin project that's ran in store. This is an excellent result and will go towards further enhancing the training and development of our cadets. Thank you to the local community for their continued support. It is greatly appreciated."
Proud mum, Karen Nicholson said: "Thank you to everyone who supported the Formby Maritime Cadets in Waitrose, as a Mum of one of the cadets, they really are very grateful."
Taking part in the Maritime Cadets builds confidence and develops self-esteem. It requires persistence, commitment and has a lasting impact on the attitudes and outlook of all young people who join.
Our cadets are aged between: 8 - 11 Junior Maritime Cadets 11 - 18 Maritime Cadets Demand continues to rise year on year. We have ambitious plans for growth, development and sustainability and we look forward to working with all our new networks in Formby as well as our existing networks to make our goals a reality.
Our achievements and growth have inspired us to be more ambitious and to set ourselves some challenging goals. Our starting point is the understanding that, if the Maritime Cadets & Sea Training Corps is good for the young people currently enrolled, then it is good for all the others not yet able to access the opportunities the Maritime Cadets & Sea Training Corps has to offer. We are passionate about inspiring the next generation and creating a brighter future for them and their communities.
Our ambitions are to increase the number of young people enrolled in the Maritime Cadets & Sea Training Corps. To ensure that all young people who enrol in the Maritime Cadets & Sea Training Corps are put through a structured and enhanced training syllabus.
To recruit, support and recognise more volunteers from diverse backgrounds, to extend our reach and enable more young people to access the Maritime Cadets & Sea Training Corps. To expand and diversify the delivery partners we work with to extend our reach and increase numbers of young people who enrol.
To ensure that there is adequate resources and literature available to support volunteers in enhancing the experience for all cadets.
We hope you too feel inspired to get involved, support our work and create a brighter future.
