Many people probably don’t realise the logistical challenges we face as a small Unit, in the far-flung corner of the West Coast of Scotland. With only 4 buses to Glasgow daily, a bus journey, by the way of over 4 hours each way. We often rely on staff, volunteers and parents to transport cadets to their destination, inevitably going beyond Glasgow. This usually involves a return journey of a minimum of 10 hours and 350 odd miles! Despite these challenges, this year alone we have managed to provide cadets and staff offshore and training opportunities, travelling to Dundee, Rosyth, Largs, Inverness, Wales, Ireland and even London (we’ll let you calculate the hours and miles involved).
As a Unit, we are committed to giving each cadet the opportunity to fully experience every aspect of the Sea Cadets training and in so doing, offer them the chance to realise their full potential and give them wider life experience, beyond what a small and remote community can provide. Hats off to all the cadets that have risen to these challenges and to all our volunteers, past and present, because nothing happens without them! Also, to our many funders who have made these opportunities possible. Have a safe journey AC Caius and OC Beth and enjoy the whole experience! (btw the map only shows the first part of your journey😆)

CalMac Community Fund

We are delighted to announce that Campbeltown Sea Cadets have been awarded £2,000 from the CalMac Community Fund. Like many rural areas, opportunities and resources are often limited, making it harder for young people to achieve their full potential. With this funding, we will be able to send cadets on offshore voyages, where they will spend a week at sea with cadets from around the country, learning navigation, seamanship, stewarding but most importantly to work together as a team. Cadets who have been given these opportunities often return, not only with newfound skills but with increased confidence and enthusiasm. Sometimes it only takes one experience to open other possibilities. Thank you CalMac Ferries for your support.
