Scimitar completed a bag pack at Asda St Helens to raise vital funds for the Unit and the Minibus Fund. We raised a huge amount of £325 in total. At the moment, we are saving up for a Unit Minibus so that we can transport Cadets & Adults across the country for not only important Sea Cadet events but for local fundraisers etc. Thank you to everyone that donated & the cadets and staff that attended.
