Sea Cadet Unit No.238
Medway Towns (T.S. Cornwallis) SCC
We are a voluntary, uniformed, national, youth organisation which relies on charitable donations. (staff are not paid unless they go away from home on courses and even then there are restrictions). Staff are fully trained at District, Area and National levels for general and specialist qualifications, such as: Seamanship, Boatwork and Boat Handling, Physical Training, Marine Engineering, First Aid, Expedition Training, Cooking and Stewarding.
We are neither a para-military organisation nor a recruitment service for the Royal Navy but, we do provide useful training and instruction to the same exacting high standards demanded by the Royal Navy. Each unit is inspected and assessed annually by the Royal Navy to ensure that the high standards are kept up. We also provide other sporting activities, such as: swimming, sailing, 5-a-side football, shooting, Paddlesport (kayaking and Canoeing) , pulling (rowing), power boating and field gun competitions .
The Corps provides courses in naval shore establishments (Torpoint, Portsmouth, Scotland areas, etc) and opportunities to visit warships at sea. The corps owns and operates several offshore training vessels including the brig T.S. Royalist (pictured above).
