What we do
At Littlehampton we aim to give young people an experience that will help them grow into the person they want to be in a safe and friendly environment. Through various activities and adventures, we learn teamwork, respect, loyalty, self-confidence, commitment, self-discipline, honesty and how to be the best version of ourselves.
You learn life skills. I was 12, very quiet and shy. Cadets makes you find the confidence. You feel part of something special. Serafina, 15
We offer a range of different activities from sailing, windsurfing and powerboating - to rock climbing, camping, and music - plus, so much more! At Littlehampton you are also able to gain different qualifications that you can take with you once you leave Sea Cadets!
"It makes me feel I can do things others can't. I don't want to stay in my house every day. I want to see how the world is."
Shaun, 13
It is our priority to make sure that Sea Cadets is a safe environment young people can go to, to be themselves. Click here to find out more about how we safeguard our young people.
At Littlehampton, Arundel & District Sea Cadets we are fortunate that we are located right alongside the River Arun. Becuase of our locality, we aim to get out on the water boating as much as possible.
Alongside our Cheverton Champ small motor boat, the unit owns 2 Trinity 500 rowing boats to conduct rowing training with, as well as a Triumph safety boat.
The unit currently has instructors to teach and qualify cadets in subjects such as Rowing, First Aid, Seamanship, Navigation, Catering, Piping & CyberFirst (Digital Security).
Cadets also have opportunites to gain their Duke of Edinburgh Award, either at Bronze, Silver or Gold level.
We have a good tradition of competing in Sea Cadet competitions, having recently won District competitions in First Aid, Piping and, Colour Party (Drill).
