Sea Cadets helped CVQO Patron, Dannii Minogue, celebrate being presented with her honorary doctorate in Media from the University of Solent at HQS Wellington, London on Wednesday.
Representing Sea Cadets were AC Luke Short from City of London Unit and LC Dani Qais from Haringey unit. Also present was POC Charlotte Robinson, a finalist and prizewinner at this year’s Duke of Westminster Awards, an annual competition run by CVQO to reward the most outstanding cadets across the UK.
Of being a patron for CVQO Dannii said, "The biggest thing about CVQO is giving young people who want to further themselves a chance, and to provide mentors who want to help them along the way. It’s incredible to see the enthusiasm from the cadets and to see how they develop throughout their time.”
Sea Cadets aged between 12 and 18 marched onto Trafalgar Square, London, today to celebrate the 206th national Trafalgar Day. A spectacular ceremonial display of marching band, ‘Skip Jump’ and club swinging by 500 young people entertained spectators at the iconic London landmark.
Army and Air cadets also took part and the Platoons of each cadet force were inspected by Royal Marines, Major General Buster Howes OBE and Captain Mark Windsor RN, Captain Sea Cadet Corps.
Sea Cadets led Platoons with a traditional blue jacket parade from the Mall to Trafalgar Square, with an 80 strong marching band, joined by the Army and Air cadets.
