WAKEFIELD SEA CADETS REOPENS FLOODED BUILDING

WAKEFIELD SEA CADETS REOPENS FLOODED BUILDING

Wakefield Sea Cadets has opened its newly-refurbished building, 15 months after it was flooded by Storm Eva.

The unit, part of national youth charity Sea Cadets, had to work hard to raise the funds to bring the building back into use after it was damaged on Boxing Day 2015.

Although forced to seek temporary accommodation and having no fit-for-purpose base for 15 months, Wakefield Sea Cadets hosted the West Yorkshire District Trafalgar Day Parade, was nominated for a national Sea Cadets trophy and represented the area at Sea Cadets' National Regatta.

The building was officially reopened on Friday 31 March, and also incorporated an awards night.
