On Saturday 5 January 2019, the unit took part in the Maidenhead Lions Club annual Swimarathon.

We took 2 teams with both Volunteers and Cadets involved, swimming in relay for an hour raising funds 50:50 for the Unit and the Lions Charitable Trust.

Both teams surpassed their lap targets and a great enjoyable, yet tiring, team evening was held.

Cadets all attended the anual mess dinner dressed up smartly for a 3 course meal cooked by the lovely UMT and Parents and helpers... this was a chance to be congratulated for what they have acheived over the last year and to just have a social get together out of the norm of the regular night...

they also came down on the last night of the year dressed up slightly differently, from being a giant present to being Del Boy from only fools and horses the cadtes had a bit of a blow out, fun and games and time to just chill before the break over christmas... after all the affort and acheivements this year i feel this was greatly deserved...
