With grateful thanks from all at Birmingham Sherbourne to:
Property for Kids; The Bernard Piggott Charitable Trust; The Cook & Wolstenholme Charitable Trust; The Edward & Dorothy Cadbury Trust and EWV Trust Fund for their kind donations. We have now raised the order for our own Yole Club and should be with us within the next few weeks.
The Yole Club is a sliding seat rowing boat suitable for 1 or 2, easy to use for people of all abilities and is recommended for introduction and training.
A really big Thank You to the board of Trustees of Baron Davenports Charity for their kind donation of £1,000 for the refurbishment of the old comms room into a fully functional classroom, we can't wait to get started!
A Huge thank you to the Trustees of the Edward V Vincent Trust for their kind donation of £500 towards the cost of purchasing a Yole, this gives us the first 20% and a goal for us to aim at. Fundraising will now begin to raise the balance and achieve our target as soon as possible.
A lot of hard work over the last few weeks culminated in a weekend at HMS Raleigh for the South West Area Drill and Piping Competition. Birmingham Sherbourne and their fellow District Units made up the biggest contingency of the competition. Excellent effort form all involved and although no medals this time we couldn't be prouder and you couldn't have worked harder. 4th for Continuity and 6th for Armed Guard, competition at this level is a very stressful occasion and everyone gave over 100%.

Proud as punch were the team trainers, captain and Lieutenant Commander (SCC) Jay Beddow RNR, the ARO of the outstanding performance at the National 5-a-side Football Competition, so much so he treated them all to an ice-cream to say thank you. The second year running for the girls with noteable hero's of the teams made up of both Sherbourne & Vernon players, Tia, the highest goal scorer of the competition and due to illness, Izzy, newly enrolled 2 weeks prior, joined the team as goalie half an hour before the bus left Birmingham.
Staff and fellow cadets from both units congratulate you all on your spectacular achievement, some premier league players here in the making.
