On Tuesday 3 - Friday 6 April, the annual CVQO Westminster Awards selection event was held in the Quantock Hills of Somerset. The event pits the 40 nominees from across the Cadet Forces against eachother in a series of tasks. Sea Cadets were delighted to have nine participants.
These annual awards recognise selfless, determined individuals who have overcome adversity or a personal challenge or have gone the extra mile to help others. The finalists took part in a week of challenges and tasks in mixed weather conditions, but all set about them with enthusiasm and vigour. The sea cadets now wait to hear which of them have made it into the final lucky 10 who will go to South Africa in the summer.
